Poses - Context and Representation



Yolanda Dominguez created 'Poses' (2011) as a criticism of the absurd and artificial world of glamour and of fashion that magazines present, specifically, the highly-distorted image of women that they transmit through models that do not represent real women.

These images of women (thrown, submissive, weak, sick...) regularly feature in fashion spreads and they have a great influence in both men and women when building our roles in terms of behavior and ways of thinking.

The aim: to make it clear how ridiculous, and at times harmful, it can be to follow these models that the world of glamour impose on us.
