Angela Ferrari (b. 1990, Buenos Aires, Argentina) is a visual artist whose practice spans painting, textiles, and installation. Rooted in the deconstruction of classical European pictorial traditions, particularly the genre of hunting scenes, Ferrari's evocative work interrogates historical narratives of power, submission, and control. Ferrari reimagines these compositions through deliberate distortions of perspective, chromatic experimentation, and thematic inversions, complicating the relationships between predator and prey, human and animal, hunter and hunted. By engaging with this historically Western, colonial, and patriarchal genre, she disrupts its conventions, reframing it as a space for feminist and ecological inquiry.
Angela Ferrari lives and works in Mexico City, Mexico. The artist has been presented in solo exhibitions including Aurora at Adhesivo Contemporary, Mexico City (2024); Vértigo at Angstroms, Mexico City (2024); and Blood and Dust at Maximilian Contemporary, San Francisco (2023). She has participated in major art fairs such as Salón Acme, Material Art Fair, and FAMA, and has been awarded grants and residencies including the SOMA Educational Program, Lugar a Dudas (Cali, Colombia), and Cobertizo (Jilotepec, Mexico).
