Through drawings and strokes, Fabiana Comas Risquez’s (Caracas, Venezuela) gaze goes to the essentials of objects, nature, and the human body. Her marks are gestures that respond to the physical impulse to draw, turn over, and evoke what is recycled in her memory to represent or transform experiences.

The artist experiments with the shape of the human body to explore femininity, queerness, and the power structures that act on bodies. Likewise, she is interested in the contemplation of lines, studies on nature, and the abstractions of popular culture. Her work has been exhibited in Venezuela, Mexico, Australia, and Japan. In 2019, she resided for three years in East Arnhem Land at the Buku Larrnggay Mulka Art Center in Australia.
