Bianca Fields, born in Cleveland, Ohio in 1995 and based in Boston, MA, is an artist whose work has been showcased at notable venues like the Armory Show, Ruttkowski, 68 in Paris, L21 Gallery in Spain, and the Frieze Art Fair in London.
Her portraits and figurative paintings explore themes of repression and mental confinement, using archetypes on primed canvases to evoke despair and solitude. Fields portrays feminized primate figures as representations of her envisioned self, employing a wet-in-wet technique to create allegories that blend ritual and beauty while addressing misogynoir. Through her art, she examines emotional truths, identity, and the specter of violence.
