Zoe Barcza’s paintings center on the human body as a site of investigation for various cultural, political, and social forces. Her canvases feature highly realistic figures, interspersed with elements of caricature and the imagined effects of cultural influences. Confrontational text often surrounds these exaggerated figures, mascquerading as corporate slogans, feminist mantras, teenage confessions, and more. Barcza navigates diverse cultural niches with a playful balance of engagement and irreverence, crafting the precise humor that defines her oeuvre.
