Donna Huanca lounging and staring into the camera

Donna Huanca2 collaborationsDonna Huanca blends performance and paint to defy the male gaze and decolonise contemporary art. Her multidisciplinary installations show painted models - which the artist refers to as ‘skin paintings’ - amidst serene environments created with sculpture, painting, photography, sound and scent. Symbolic gestures suffuse throughout: rectangular free-standing paintings represent phone screens or digital interfaces, while cobalt blue embodies female power. Huanca uses a range of materials including silicone, plastic, clay, sand, textiles, hair, turmeric and metal. This mix of artificial and organic materials became particularly pertinent in 2020 during the outbreak of Covid-19: “I wanted to acknowledge ‘nature’ in a new form, both toxic, artificial, yet protective. The layered scent of wood, mingled with the sanitary, antiseptic hand-sanitiser gel we are bathing in.”
