Jen DeLuna (b. 1999), a Filipino and Colombian-American painter, explores the feminine through the lenses of affinity and vulnerability.
DeLuna uses found and family photographs as the basis for her work, capturing the tension between movement and stillness, personal and public.
Her figurative works in Dust and Sweat and Feigning Grace are wrapped in blurry hazes yet pierce through the surface with shining highlights, creating a simultaneously uncanny and invasive impression. Her mystifying and alluring style builds visual and emotional tension in her works, calling into question their own viewership.
