1) It is helpful for other women who have been raped to feel like they are still capable of living a life where they are successful and own their own life. 2) It can feel like the fact that she was raped is a way of making her art not be about her own creative genius, just about her rape. 3) Maybe used in a different painting? 4) the fact makes us more empathetic to her art and gives it more meaning and perspective.
