Juliana Cerqueira Leite



Juliana is showing three sculptures at the current Saatchi Gallery show: 
Newspeak: British Art Now.




Juliana's sculptures are often made by a physically demanding activity,this piece is an inflated latex cast of the form that is created by burrowing into a huge block of clay (finger gouges are clearly visible). Her work engages with the history of figurative art, challenging notions of the body as static and reformulating figurative representation.
