A self-portrait in a ridiculous, photographic, teenager-like pose that satirizes the usual icons associated with the canons of feminine beauty (according to make-up, creams and smiling faces.) Women must be beautiful in almost every personal and social activity and in the chauvinis- tic context of our stereotyped, sexist societies.
