Ana Benavides
B. 1996, Monterrey, Mexico, lives and works in London
Ana Benavides is an artist whose work invites viewers into a contemplative space, offering moments of introspection amidst the chaos of daily life. Using texture, gesture, and vivid colour, she delves into the complexities of emotion, both the cherished memories and the feelings we seek to let go. For Ana Benavides, painting is an intimate conversation and a dance, where movement and colour translate emotion onto the canvas. Drawing inspiration from the vibrant colours of her heritage, she believes each hue carries its energy, sparking introspection and connection. Through her work, she seeks to create a sanctuary where viewers can pause, reflect, and reconnect with their inner selves.
