Art was always dominated by males for as long as art has been around, however there were always an enormous amount of females trying to destroy that male dominance. One of these artists was Ana Mendieta. She was from Cuba and was a strong believer in feminism and that was shown in her artwork of the "Silueta series" which took place from 1973-1980. These photographs were some originals of Ana's personal body which makes the statement she was trying to deliver stronger, and others were objects in shape of the body. She even went to the extreme measures of incorporating blood into her art work as a sign of the pain that was being felt at the time.
