摘要

This research focuses on the exploitation of Dyan Anggraini as being a mother, an artist, and an employee and the creative process and representation femininity of Dyan Anggraini in her paintings. This study is a qualitative research of critical discourse analysis. Critical discourse analysis is used as a method to differentiate between the feminism issue and the formation, the construction and the interpretation of that issue. Data collection was carried out through observation, in-depth interviews and documentation of exhibition catalog Dyan Anggraini. The results of the research show that: first, femininity of Dyan Anggraini is like motherhood, mercy, perseverance, that had been considered as an obstacle for women themselves to achieve things in their lives; second, the use of palet colour and visual objects with simple poses became the master pieces of meditative nuance. Third, the femininity representation through visual objects in the painting of Dyan Anggraini is kind-hearted, love-caring, and persevering. That femininity is implemented in a special gender mainstreaming of formal and nonformal education via policy regulations or programs, that are judged as one kind of sexuality and changes the perspective of femininity, which is considered to prevent a person to achieve many things as many as possible.
