Painting of character screaming under androcentric medicine by Lala Drona

Pre-Masters work: Androcentric Screams



Androcentric Screams examines the silenced pain of women and non-binary people in male-centric medicine. Using raw, textured Art Brut techniques on cut and gauze-wrapped canvases, it symbolizes healing and defies smooth beauty ideals. Inspired by personal illness, it confronts the abject to reclaim feminine power through dangerous, sublime resistance.

Expanded Collage




Expanded Collage explores fragmentation, concealment, and the abject through photo collage, oil paint, and video. Influenced by Kristeva’s theory of the abject, it uses techniques like pixelation and blurring to make disturbing imagery accessible, reflecting on identity, transformation, and the body across both physical and digital spaces in flux.
