This body of work is inspired by Italian pulp film artist Gialo, that often portray the seedy underbelly of society as glamorous yet blurring the lines between the alluring and the grotesque. often male dominated or misogynistic in nature Korderas recreates scenes as a voyeur, flipping the gaze and the muse, ultimately empowering the female as subject rather than object.
