About the artist:
Donna Huanca was born in 1980 in Chicago and she is known for immersive installations and performances encompassing painting, sculpture, sound, and scent. Inspired by natural cycles of birth and decay, the body and skin are ongoing points of focus, where she models them as both surface and material. Her paintings layer multiple dimensions and temporalities by extending the life cycle of past performances into a new body of work, merging the transience of performance with the permanence of painting. Her works are deeply invested in ritual practice as a means for transcendence, meditation, and transformation.
Donna Huanca was a participant in 2004.
