Woman, Myth and Mystery

This artwork explores the conditioning that occurs in the construction of women’s identity with irony, humor and poetry.

The myth of the biblical traditions, such as Adam and Eve, the separation between body and soul, the superwoman myth and her body’s shape, as well as the problem of anorexia as a fatal consequence of this conditioning, are the issues addressed in this work.

However, there is also a positive celebration of the feminine identity in the portraits of forty women of different ages, showing an object that they feel identified with.

Women, Myth and Mystery is part of the collective artistic project Women, Art and Commitment, organized by the artistic collective Soma.
