Georgia O’Keeffe was an American artist around 1918-1986 who was one of the first female artists to break into the modernism trend in art. She centered her artwork around flowers, which were often viewed by the public as “provocative” due to the fact that some of the flowers seemed to simbolize a woman’s sex organ. O’Keeffe was married to a man named Alfred Stieglits but their marriage was filled with many affairs from both parties and a lack of confrontation. O’keeffe had affairs with both men and women since she was bisexual- one of her affairs even being Frida Kahlo, a famous Mexican painter.
My idea for a short story about Georgia O’Keeffe:
O’Keeffe struggles with being bisexual during a time when it was not socially acceptable to be bisexual. She not only has to worry about that, but struggles to confront her husband to talk about their relationship, as it has always been about avoidance
