The study was conducted at Luna Dian Setya's painting studio, Jl. Jayawijaya 55 Mojosongo Jebres Surakarta in April - July 2018 using qualitative methods. The data sources used informants, places and events, and documents. The data collection techniques used observation and in-depth interviews. The sampling technique used purposive sampling. The data validity used source triangulation and informant review. And the data analysis techniques applied the flowing model. The results of the study can be explained that Luna Dian Setya does create her art products in a contemporary society that provides space for freedom in interpreting every reality of life. The atmosphere of popular culture that Luna lived in, formed her view of female figures that were often used as subject matters in paintings. She presents various images of women as an effort to express her views and beliefs about women. The images presented include women who are gentle, calm, motherly, sometimes also the image of women who are strong, powerful, lost, and submissive. The image of women that Luna shows in her paintings is dynamic and various, along with a shift of the values of contemporary life
