In her recent works, the Brazilian-born painter Ana Prata (@anagravitoprata) has been freely exploring formal, narrative, and technical possibilities in the field of painting. With inventiveness and a critical spirit, her intense experimentations in landscape, portraiture, abstraction, and still life manifest a wide-ranging imagination and a good-humored attitude. The artist explores a variety of treatments of the pictorial surface, with frankness and eloquence. By Cristiano Raimondi (@cristianoraimondi)
