Viola Leddi

The work of Viola Leddi (Milan, 1993) questions the power structures that are visible in the representation of female bodies in Italian and Western art, culture and society. Her research focuses on forms of sentimentality, desirability and sexuality in female adolescence. Leddi's investigation on the concept of "girlishness" attempts to shed light on the ambivalent relationship between coercive processes of identification with certain iconographies and stereotypes, and the desire to subvert them.
