About this artwork
Scantily clad with an exposed breast, Jane Fonda as Barbarella became a style icon with the designs of Paco Rabanne. Barbarella contradicts familiar female roles, doing as she likes with whom she likes. She is confident and unerring, is aware of her influence on people and knows how to use that influence to her advantage. The movie from 1968 in which Barbarella jets through the galaxy from adventure to adventure, depicts a version of a woman that…
is not ashamed of her womanhood but rather celebrates it. A woman who does not hide her femininity but rather uses it as she pleases. Her breast is piece of her armour, emphasizing her power. For nakedness does not automatically mean vulnerability, but can stand just as much for strength and self-confidence.

« "I want my art to set off an avalanche of freedom, thereby giving others permission to shine." »
Adrienne Egger’s bold, narrative-driven paintings explore transformation—where strength meets vulnerability, control meets surrender. Blending surrealism, impressionism, and expressionism, she crafts immersive storyscapes of emotion, memory, and possibility. Born in the Rocky Mountains and now in the Austrian Alps, her unconventional upbringing fuels a fascination with life’s contradictions. Her work holds space for reflection and affirms the full spectrum of being, reclaiming complexity as quiet strength. With collectors from Hong Kong to New York and features in luxury publications and auction houses, Adrienne also founded UNARTIG – Avantgarde Art Salon, curating immersive interdisciplinary experiences that foster art, culture, and community. Through Graceland, her nonprofit, she supports transformation at life’s pivotal moments. Her practice spans painting, design, fashion, and coaching, each a thread in her mission to turn life’s raw materials into beauty and insight.
