Tete Dura (Castalla, Spain) is a contemporary figurative painter with more than twenty years of consolidated career. Her large-scale mixed media works on canvas explore the female face as a metaphor for the human condition. In her recent series, women appear as symbolic circus characters —the tamer seeking understanding, the trained seal as a reflection of abused women, the escapist longing for freedom— and now evolve into figures caught in perfect storms. Her textured and expressive painting reveals both the vulnerability and the strength of the feminine in contemporary society.
