Feminized French Metro Maps

Métroféminin is a Redesigned Paris Metro Map That Honors Iconic Women

— March 25, 2014 — World
The Paris Metro map has been redesigned numerous times, but this time it is in the likes of famous, historic women. French artist Silvia Radelli wanted to shine light on the fact that very few women have had a subway station named after them. She re-created this map, titled 'Métroféminin,' with every single station named after women who've made significant contributions to not only Paris, but the world.

The women featured range from political figures to artists, and designers. Some well-known names include artist Frida Khalo, author Jane Austen, actress Marlene Dietrich and fashion designer Coco Chanel.

Next time you're in Paris, hop on a Georgia O'Keefe-bound train or ride along the Hellen Keller line. The map is currently on display at Paris’s Galerie L'Aléatoire.
Trend Themes
1. Feminist Metro Maps - Redesigning metro maps with a feminist lens, naming stations after iconic women presents an opportunity for brands to showcase their commitment to gender equality and promote female empowerment.
2. Representation in Public Spaces - Highlighting the lack of female representation in public spaces, such as subway stations, offers an opportunity for urban planning and transportation companies to incorporate more diverse and inclusive naming practices.
3. Artistic Activism - Using art as a medium for activism, like the 'Métroféminin' map, can inspire creativity and spark conversations about historical and contemporary contributions of women, opening doors for collaborations between artists, museums, and activists.
Industry Implications
1. Transportation - The redesign of metro maps to honor iconic women provides an opportunity for transportation companies to rebrand and differentiate themselves by incorporating inclusive and diverse naming practices.
2. Gender Equality Advocacy - Organizations focused on gender equality can collaborate with urban planning agencies to promote initiatives that highlight the importance of representation and recognition of women in public spaces.
3. Art and Culture - Art institutions and museums can utilize artistic activism to bring attention to historical and contemporary contributions by women, offering engaging and thought-provoking exhibitions and installations.
