Résumé
The following article is an historical analysis on the development of contemporary engraving in the country of Nepal through the last centuries. It focuses on the political and social representation of the Nepali woman in relation to the traditional worship of the Śakti, or the feminine divinity, through the use of red color as a signifier of womanhood. It starts with an introduction to traditional Nepali printmaking on the aim of analyzing the process of local adaptation to the new techniques imported by the British in Kathmandu. At the same time that the country's cultural identity, or Nepaliness, was visually built towards the global world. Based on a selection of women artists, this article studies the emergence of contemporary feminist printmaking in Nepal, where the predominance of red color acts as a link of hybridization between the local traditional culture and the contemporary transcultural thought.
