Reivindicaciones de la femme fatale desde construcciones narrativas visuales renovadoras en el tercer milenio

Abstract

This artistic project seeks to explore what has been the figure of the femme fatale in its passage through history and also its image in culture and literature. Characters such as Circle, Helen of Troy, Lamia or Deliah, are women who have been portrayed as seductive and dangerous in their respective stories. In the film noir of the 1940s, the femme fatale became a symbol that challenged gender stereotypes, while at the same time creating misogynistic visions of women themselves. The work presented in a series of paintings inspired by cinematic proposals seeks to analyze and criticize these stigmas by highlighting historical and literary figures considered femme fatales by society. Through these visual compositions we seek to understand the diversity and complexity of femininity, questioning conventional narratives and promoting a deeper and more nuanced vision of the feminine human being.
