I am not a lady
Non Sono Una Signora (I Am Not a Lady) reinterpretates Loredana Bertè’s iconic 1982 anthem of defiance through a quiet, introspective gesture. Rendered in charcoal on paper at 110 × 75 cm, the work transforms the male body into a landscape of light and shadow—fluid, ambiguous, and intentionally unclassifiable.
Rather than depicting identity directly, Giannoulis constructs a topography of curves and voids, where form becomes metaphor. The title anchors the piece within a lineage of queer resistance: an assertion of selfhood that exists outside prescribed norms. This drawing stands as a dual proclamation—one of poetic concealment and one of deliberate disobedience—affirming queerness as both intimate terrain and radical performance.
