More Heed - Timed Auction

Tuere (she/her) is a painter based in Madrid creating a wondrous world of color. Her practice focuses on the performative aspects of femininity and the playfulness that comes along with exploring sexuality. She recently shifted her focus to contribute to the Black Lives Matter movement by creating posters for the first BLM protest in Madrid, and has since started to auction these posters to raise money for organizations that support Black lives. Her work commemorates the lives lost due to violence, emphasizing cis women and trans victims. What stands out about Tuere’s work is how she infuses joy and hope into moments seeped with pain— ”I try to make them [victims] as bright and beautiful as possible, and I try to bring out what I see in them and honor them as much as possible.”
