Sainte Nitouche

In this work, Emmanuelle de Rosa defies expectations by introducing the figure of Barbie, an emblematic symbol of contemporary popular culture.

Through its provocative approach, "Sainte Nitouche" invites the viewer to question social norms and artistic conventions. The work explores the concepts of identity, religion and pop culture, offering a deep reflection on contemporary society and its contradictions. By bringing together traditional and contemporary elements, Emmanuelle de Rosa creates a stimulating visual experience that challenges expectations and opens up new perspectives. "Sainte Nitouche" is a work that challenges the limits of art and invites the public to question preconceived ideas, while celebrating the diversity and creativity of contemporary artistic expression.
