INFORMATION

In ‘Corpóreo, Extendible’, Ana uses the human form as a performative vessel. She fragments, isolates, and plays with different aspects of the body to reveal its limitations and fragility. Through her creative practice, she attempts to distort the body's structure in order to transgress its physical and aesthetic barriers. In these images, she reinterprets and reconstructs our perception of the human body, and expands its emotional and physical capabilities.

Ana Werren was born in 1986 in Guatemala. She holds a degree in Advanced Studies in Photography and Management of Photographic Projects from La Fototeca and the University of San Carlos de Guatemala. For two consecutive years she participated in the International Festival of Photography in Pingyao, China, as well as Huéspedes del Presente which culminated in a group exhibition in Madrid, Spain. Ana has also shown her work at Art gala and the Subasta de Arte Latino americano Juannio in Guatemala. Her first solo show exhibition, Corpóreo, Extendible was presented at Galería Extra in Guatemala in 2018.
