About The Artwork

“Elektra” is made with acrylic on paper and is visually inspired by the strong female character in the movie “Elektra” from 2005 and content-wise by Greek mythology. The background story is that she is the daughter of the famous Agamemnon and Clytemnestra and saved his brothers life by sending him away when her father was murdered coming back from the Trojan War by his own wife and her lover. As in Greek mythology, drama and at that time especially blood revenge is essential, the brother later returns. Elektra helps him to murder their mother and their mother’s lover. I chose the red background because it is the color of blood and emotion that fits to the story. In the center I depict a modern “Elektra” who does not look well-behaved, but rather wild and provoking. She is powerful, without fear and self-conscious which can be seen by her figure-accentuating, latex-like outfit.

Lena Snow is a fine artist based in Germany who currently has her studio in a small town on the edge of the Black Forest (near Baden-Baden) where she is working on her latest artworks while keeping in touch with nature. Lena is specialized in female portraiture and sensual art with her main medium being paper. She earned a Master's degree at the University of Mannheim and Karlsruhe. ​ "I explore various aspects of femininity and female identity in my paintings. My inspiration are personal stories of women I encountered, but also female characters in mythology, film, and literature. They are a new, powerful, and emancipated approach of one’s identity and sexuality, and at the same time they stand for empowerment for all women. For a long time only men have painted women, neglecting their personal stories of ambivalence, trauma and multifaceted nature, but it is time that women change the narrative and capture their unique stories by contributing to a new, empowered expression of elevated femininity." Lena has exhibited internationally, and has been published in several art and lifestyle magazines around the world. The award-winning artist is also editor of the international art magazine Goddessarts Magazine.
