Abstract
[EN] This document presents the production of two individual sculptures and a sculptural installation, which serve a parallel investigation for their conceptualization: Madness through a woman¿s eyes. With the establishment of the capitalist bases, the gender gap was divided in its entirety depriving women of a wage and property, as well as reducing them to reproductive and domestic work. The witch hunt was the justification for mass femicide and the opportunity to establish a power that would have a few forever. This form of exercising power over women continues to this day and has gone through historical stages that have been dedicated to the manipulation of society in favour of the benefits of the same powerful men, taking up again, no further than in the S.XX, the witch hunt as justification for the genocide and spread of hatred towards the female gender. The impossibility on the part of many women of constructing themselves within the parameters of a sexual normative that diminished them produced internments in psychiatric hospitals and the application of "therapies" that erased from their bodies all traces of their former personality, turning them into submissive persons and complacent entities before an irrational normality. KEY WORDS: WOMAN, CAPITALISM, HISOTRY, MADNESS, SCULPTURE, INSTALLATION. TFGM
