“Centering on contemporary female stereotypes, the paintings of Lucía Tello (b. 1996) reflect on both personal and societal gender identities and the myriad ways that media capitalizes on these clichés. Originally from Seville, Tello distills the themes, motifs, and symbols that have come to be associated with the feminine and recasts them in her paintings as focus points for reflection on and interrogation of mass media’s portrayal of women.
