This artwork
is part of a research on the cultural stereotypes of our times. Themes such as
Love and Sexuality have been used and abused in every context and for the most
disparate purposes. What can be seen is that in the vast majority of cases it
is a question of exploitation characterized by a positive base note which aims
to make the public recognize the ideal model proposed. It is precisely against
this homologation of experiences and values that my painting stands: a canvas
with alarming colors, which evokes an atmosphere of oppression and a sense of
threat with shapes and colors. It is a vision in opposition to the idea of
sexuality as an inseparable unity and daydream that the collective
imagination proposes to today's young girls through films, novels and music.
For some of them, the fairy tale does not turn out to be such, and in addition
to physical pain there is also another type of more subtle suffering linked to
the fact of perceiving theirselves inadequate and different because
"unable" to live the experience as the cultural stereotype paints it.
