Madonna Metamorphoses is a body of work illustrating the women martyred and monstrous. In fables, myths and folklore the woman is framed as a spinster, a seductress, a virgin, a victim. She is monstrous. She is contrary enough to upset the status quo, but weak enough to be defeated by it. 

 When women undergo monstrous transformations in these narratives there can be two reasons why. The transformation is either a curse placed upon her, one that must be broken for her to be whole again. In these tales women commonly become ostracized, scapegoats.  With Madonna Metamorphoses I aimed to challenge that.

Madonna Metamorphoses shows that this curse, moreso a metamorphosis, as a beautiful thing. Despite the visceral, sometimes violent, painful nature of it. Showing women relentlessly content, embracing their new cursed bodies, loving the choices that made them monstrous.
