The work is dedicated to Pedro Lemebel's play <em>\u201cHo paura torero\u201d<\/em> (I'm afraid of bullfighters), directed by Claudio Longhi and starring Lino Guanciale. <br><br>The project explores the complexities of toxic relationships and the search for an authentic identity within contemporary society. At the center of the composition emerges a hybrid figure, a bull-woman, representing the compromise between one's instinctive nature and the need for social acceptance. <br><br>This hybridization evokes the imagery of the \u201cmonstrous,\u201d a term historically used to marginalize those who deviate from the norm, with a direct reference to the <strong>LGBTQIA+ community<\/strong>. The figure's posture, inspired by the sculptural group of the <strong>Farnese Bull<\/strong>, amplifies the tension of those struggling to adhere to rigid social conventions. <br><br>Through key symbols such as the <strong>dressing gown<\/strong> (an emblem of vulnerability and intimacy) and the representation of a <strong>non-binary identity<\/strong>, <strong>Rosmunda<\/strong> creates a visual bridge with Lemebel's work. <strong>The bull-woman thus becomes the manifesto of a relentless struggle between self-determination and oppression<\/strong>, moving in a world that often rejects diversity.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/section><section class=\"bde-section-1554-118 bde-section\">\n  \n  \n\t\n\n\n\n<div class=\"section-container\"><div class=\"bde-div-1554-119 bde-div\">\n  \n  \n\t\n\n\n\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"bde-image2-1554-120 bde-image2\" src=\"http:\/\/rosmunda.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/HO-PURA-TORERO-ROSMUNDA-ILLUSTRAZIONE.webp\" alt=\"Illustrazione completa a figura intera della donna-toro per &#039;Ho paura torero&#039;.
