How Artist Donna Huanca Uses the Naked Body As a Canvas

Last week, on the cusp of Frieze, Scar Cymbals, the performance-led, multi-sensory London debut of Bolivian-American artist Donna Huanca, opened at the Zabludowicz Collection. The mesmeric, explicitly visceral show invites viewers to immerse themselves in thoughts pertaining to flesh and skin; bodies interacting within space; gestures and the behavioural conventions they arouse; memories, instincts and emotions engendered by the beholding of near-nude corporeal forms outside of standard surrounds – and infinite further such engrossing ideas.
