How does Frida Kahlo's work reflect her identity? What are some other themes present in her work?

Her husband, Diego Rivera, was unfaithful in the past, an affair with her sister Cristina didn't really sit well with her. She separated from twice and then divorced Rivera at his request. In addition, her various health problems continued to plague her; she required several operations at this time, including an abortion. This was too much for her self esteem and it was during this time that Frida began a series of paintings which delved into the roots of her selfdom. Her work was influenced by traumatic physical and psychological events from her childhood and early adulthood, including a crippling accident and the infidelity of her husband.
