Venuca Evanán (Lima, Perú, 1987) is a visual artist, activist, and educator. Venuca’s work is rooted in the artistic heritage of the Sarhua community in southern Peru, to which she belongs. In her work, she uses traditional elements such as earth, natural dyes, and feathers. Her pieces address issues such as eroticism and gender, feminism and sexist violence, and the struggles of migrant populations that affect her personally and that are constants in their marginalized community. Venuca’s work is a constant tension between tradition and transgression to put urgent issues on the table and, at the same time, generate interest in traditional practices in the younger generations of her community. She lives and works in Lima, Peru.
