도나 후앙카(b.1980)는 회화, 조각, 소리, 향기, 퍼포먼스를 결합한 설치로 새로운 공간감과 명상적인 경험을 창조한다. 볼리비아계 미국인으로 어릴 적 경험한 두 문화권의 차이, 여름철 시간을 보내던 볼리비아의 지역 축제는 작가가 세상을 보고 표현하는 방식에 자양분이 되었다. 도나 후앙카는 미술사에 새겨져온 여성의 연약한 이미지에 전면으로 반박하며, 전사와 같은 여성의 강인한 이미지를 내세운다. 주로 여성으로 구성되는 퍼포먼스의 모델들은 작가가 몸 위에 직접 그린 바디 페인팅을 두 번째 피부처럼 걸치고 회화와 조각 사이에서 작가로부터 주어진 최소한의 방향에 따라 퍼포먼스를 수행한다. 작가는 모델들의 이름과 수기를 모으고, 퍼포먼스 기간동안 찍은 이들의 사진을 다음 회화 작업의 바탕으로 끌어오는 등 여성에게 전시를 구성하는 강력한 주체성을 부여한다.
Donna Huanca(b.1980) creates a new sense of space and meditative experience with an installation that combines painting, sculpture, sound, and performance. As a Bolivian-American, the difference between the two cultures she experienced as a child and the local festival in Bolivia she spent every summer became nourished in the way she saw and expressed the world. Donna Huanca completely refutes the fragile image of women engraved in art history and presents a strong image of women as warriors. Models of performance, mainly composed of women, wear body paintings drawn directly on the body like a second skin and perform according to the minimum direction given by the artist among the paintings and sculptures. She gives women a strong subjectivity to compose the exhibition by collecting the names and notes of the models and bringing photos of them taken during the performance to the next painting work.
