Desperate Housewives

The Emmy-nominated show open for Desperate Housewives recreates it's own history of female angst. Iconic imagery in the vein of pop art style is used to convey the anguish of the female mind, showing how women from Eve to the present have cracked under the pressure of marriage. Familiar historical artwork is used - and humorously violated - to evoke the show’s quirky spirit and playful flaunting of women’s traditional roles in society.
