Through Her Eyes: The Female Gaze
|
Explore how women perceive themselves, each other, and the world around them, offering an authentic and multi-dimensional view of femininity, identity, and expression through this collection of works!
The Female Gaze redefines the portrayal of women through the lens of women themselves. Historically, the dominant visual narrative in art has been shaped by the "male gaze," where women are objectified, their bodies and identities framed by patriarchal ideals. These works seek to flip that narrative, placing the power of perspective in the hands of female artists.

These works seek to flip that narrative, placing the power of perspective in the hands of female artists.
Each work invites the viewer to experience the world from a distinct vantage point—a reflection of lived experience, emotion, and empowerment. These women artists experiment with form, color, and structure to express femininity and emotion in non-representational ways. It challenges the notion of "seeing" and invites viewers to experience the feminine gaze in less literal, more imaginative forms.

SHONA MCANDREW'S KAGUYA
|
Drawing from a variety of historical and personal references, Shona McAndrew renders fleeting yet intimate moments of vulnerability in the daily lives of women seldom portrayed in art history. The painting functions as not only an active rebuttal to the conventional beauty standards peddled by mass media, but also as a celebration of the physical and intellectual idiosyncrasies that every woman should revel in. Clad in her undergarments, the subject appears entirely confident in her own skin.

LARISSA DE JESÚS NEGRÓN'S I WANT WHAT I ALREADY HAVE
|
Exploring existential themes such as women’s roles in society, vitality, fear, and the unknown, the gratitude and persistence is tangible even in contrast with the portrait’s expression. "I want what I already have" is a self-portrait featuring delicate natural elements like dew and butterflies. Tears fall into a puddle, distorting the artist's reflection, reminding her to appreciate what she has rather than mourn what's missing.

JEANINE BRITO'S THE EVENING'S AFFAIRS LEAVE HER BEREFT
|
"The evening’s affairs leave her bereft stems from a new series based on an original fairy tale imagined by Brito. This work depicts a self-referential subject, seen waltzing with a male character across a ballroom setting distinguished by a resplendent red curtain and a checkered floor. The protagonist gazes towards her dance partner, a prince. He removes one of her gloves as they dance as an act of flirtation, but the gesture causes apprehension.
