Abstract

Data Visualisation is currently seen as a powerful communication tool, as the human mind is more receptive to visual information than words or raw data. However, most existing visualisations are done from an androcentric perspective. This article proposes Data Visualisation from a feminist perspective. To this end, concepts such as Feminism, Data Visualisation and Data Feminism will be addressed to arrive at the concept of Data Visualisation in Feminism, resulting in a set of guidelines and recommendations to be incorporated when designing Data Visualisations. As part of the work carried out, an existing data visualisation was selected and analysed, highlighting the guidelines of Data Feminism in Data Visualisation. As a result, a recreation of this visualisation is proposed, incorporating the Data Feminism guidelines. It was found that the resulting visualisation is different from the original and is aligned with the concepts of Data Feminism.
