This is a series of mix-media works (photography and drawing) that speculates about identity stereotypes and cultural pressures women face daily. Femanoid reflects about how the concept of gender has been changing and, more recently, how has it been subject to such intense controversy. It is also a nonsense name that makes me think about the sometimes redundant meaning-making processes that categorise women’s look, ideas, behaviours and interests.

I am also working on a series of linoleum prints of each of the 11 femanoid, scroll down to have a look.
