Vera Uvarova
BIO
Vera Uvarova (Moscow ,1989)
Russian-bred and Barcelona-based, Uvarova seeks to demystify female sexuality through the use of her own body as the main artistic tool. Taking the principles of body art and action art, the artist explores various themes related to her sexuality and her life history.
The work of Vera Uvarova takes as a basis confessional art, and body art. Through her paintings, the artist explores the concept of memory based on the remembrance of a past love. The memory that was stifled due to the stigmas and the conditioning factors of society, is reconsidered and taken by the artist as a source of inspiration for the claim of her own sexuality and her own narrative.

Sex with Russians
Employing small format canvases that resemble cinematographic frames, the artist recreates her memories through the impression of her breasts and vulva on the surface of the canvas, almost as if she recreated again and again her past sexual encounter.
