“This painting is inspired by the song “Unconditional love”

by Cyndi Lauper, taking the title of that song as an instruction

manual in the relationship with the children. The woman

who appears in the role of mother refers to Princess

Leia. The icon of the cinema is the symbol of galactic feminism

who re-designed the concept of the story princess.

Leia contradicts the role of the princesses

waiting seated for her prince to arrive.

She did not conform and fought and fought against injustice

without giving up absolutely nothing, something that earned

her to be elected Senator of the Galactic Empire, Head

of State up to twice, Generala and, of course, Jedi Knight

The character of Princess Leia played by Carrie Fisher

was unlike anything she had seen before. Leia was a princess,

but did not respond at all to the canons not written

in the movies about how they behaved and were the

princesses: she was the leader of the rebellion, tremendously

bossy, had a strong character, was not even terribly

pretty and wore something similar to a monastic habit.

She transcended any archetype: she was a princess, but

not a damsel in distress; she was a warrior, but she was not

guided only by the sword or the laser gun; she was a sister,

and in the end surely a wife and mother, but she never

ceases to be a rebel, thus exemplifying the traditional and

feminist qualities of the hero Through Leia, it became clear

that success does not have to do with gender roles, nor

for what is imposed on society. When it comes to advocating

freedom of expression, we must not give in. He taught

women that they will not settle for a negative response.”
