Angela Santana's solo exhibition at Saatchi Yates explores the representation of the female body in contemporary art, focusing on its historical context and modern perceptions shaped by the internet. Her vibrant oil paintings challenge conventional views through abstraction, while acknowledging the impermanence of digital imagery. Santana's artistic process emphasizes movement and transformation, considering the body as a dynamic entity reflecting history, identity, and desire. The exhibition serves as a radical redefinition of the female form, aiming to provoke thought around its cultural implications in today's society.
Santana's work does not merely reframe the body— it redefines it as a catalyst for rethinking the world itself, embodying transformation and identity.
In her art, Santana embraces the rapid consumption of online images to question the power structures that distort perception of the female form.
