Pretty Girls and Internet Fame
Room 211 | Feefal | Lara Georgia Carson | MaliadoodlesSince ancient times and across cultures, women and the female form have been the subject and muse of artists worldwide. Current times are no different; drawing pretty girls has been the gateway for many artists, including several of our panelists, to gather internet fame and success. In this panel we will be chatting about whether or not there’s any truth to this statement, the female vs the male gaze, how the internet and social media has changed the way audiences interact with and perceive women and the artists who draw them, and the different ways artists use or abuse convention and socially accepted norms to portray the female form in todays internet driven era to their benefit or detriment.
