Bodyscapes

By July 17, 2025September 30th, 2026News

I’m happy and excited to share that I will be exhibiting my “Preserved Beauty” series plus 5 other works for the BODYSCAPES exhibition in Barcelona at LOAD Gallery – opening this Thursday!
BODYSCAPES is a group x solo exhibition musing on the theme: What does it mean to inhabit a place – or a body?

“What does it mean to inhabit a place – or a body? Bodyscapes begins with this question, tracing how artists approach the body not as an object, but as a mutable site shaped by memory, material experience, and emotional charge; a lived terrain.

Through the eyes of ten female artists—one working as part of a duo—the body undergoes transformations, deformations, and mutations: challenging beauty standards, mirroring the endless loop of social media validation, defying gravity in search of freedom without ever leaving itself. Some bodies remain whole, quiet, grounded, insisting on their right simply to exist. In these works, the body is a sanctuary, a space for healing and connection with the inner self and nature. Finally, the digital bodies in the exhibition reflect the same embodied approach: they speak not of escape or disembodiment, but of inhabiting the virtual realm through the body—living with it, rather than attempting to leave it behind.”
