The Multifaceted Image of the Commodified Woman in the Oeuvre of Natalie Mei

Summary/Abstract: This article continues my research published in Studies on Art and Architecture in 2011, where I examined how Natalie Mei, as a woman and a female artist among male peers, represented and challenged conventional visual interpretations of women selling their bodies through the first three drawings mentioned. In my previous research on female authorship, I explored Yuri Lotman’s concepts of culture and non-culture within the semiotics of culture. This time, I will focus on the motifs and topoi associated with the imagery of sex work, examining three modes of representation and interpretation: (1) a mother and child, (2) a man and woman as a couple and (3) a reclining female nude.
