SUMMARY:

Digital culture redefines the concept of the female grotesque, providing blank screens for unconventional self-expression, subversion, and femininity. This results in rich contemporary art with multiple interpretations and creative possibilities, revealing itself as a dynamic and constantly evolving process. The images of the female grotesque can be interpreted as a process that crosses the digital realm, driven by creative and disruptive acts, re-signifying across different platforms. This thesis investigates how digital technologies and social media (re)configure aesthetic and behavioral norms, amplifying or subverting them through grotesque images of femininity. It also explores how digital culture enables the emergence of alternative narratives and resistance to dominant structures. The general objective is to map transmediations of the female grotesque in digital culture through two main cartographic movements: images conceived by Artificial Intelligence and images produced by artists subverting hegemonic standards of femininity. It highlights the role of aesthetic education in understanding the intersections of the female grotesque. Specific objectives include: understanding the grotesque as an aesthetic category, deconstructing the binary conception of beauty and ugliness; analyzing the female grotesque historically and socially; and interpreting the imagistic manifestations of the female grotesque in different forms of artistic expression in cyberspace.  It is in cyberspace, a complex interaction territory where the boundaries between reality and virtuality blur, that I will observe the manifestations of the female grotesque: a complex phenomenon that challenges conventions and expands possibilities for expression and subversion, emerging in the digital as a multifaceted universe that, like the grotesque, is metamorphic and re-signifies bodies, identities, and subjectivities.
