Abstract

The text aims to reconsider Mina's sociosemiotic identity by focusing on how her face has been portrayed on her album covers and in a series of caricatures created over the years by Gianni Ronco, which were approved by Mina herself and published in Vanity Fair. Mina is often described as chameleonic, both musically and aesthetically. This work seeks to radically challenge this conventional view.
