She holds a degree in Fine Arts from the Armando Rever\u00f3n Institute of Higher Studies in Fine Arts (IUESAPAR) in Caracas (1996) and a Master\u2019s in Art and Therapy from the University of Barcelona (2008).<\/p>\n<p>Her work blends autobiographical content with socially-oriented testimonies. In her paintings \u2014as in her poems\u2014, she speaks to us about love, anguish, desire, the body, rage, being a woman, animality, sexuality, being a migrant, and she delves into the complexities of the psyche and the elusive nature of our being.<\/p>\n<p>For Haddad, painting itself is a powerful language that communicates beyond words, which she also uses on the canvas. Haddad represents herself and women as strong, potent, vulnerable animal-beings shaped by feeling-thinking, while also understanding that the keys to comprehending oppression and resistance lie in relationships and the urgency for a better life\u2014with strength, trust, faith, and courage\u2014while operating through irreverence, irony, and humor.<\/p>\n<p>You can see her work exhibited at: \u00ab<a href=\"https:\/\/laplataformabcn.com\/en\/event\/talismanes-y-cartones-blanca-haddad\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TALISMANES Y CARTONES<\/a>\u00bb y \u00ab<a href=\"https:\/\/laplataformabcn.com\/en\/event\/la-colectiva\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">LA COLECTIVA<\/a>\u00bb, \u00ab<a href=\"https:\/\/laplataformabcn.com\/en\/event\/ar-de-1\/\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">AR-DE [1]<\/a>\u00bb.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2191,"template":"","artist_category":[8],"class_list":["post-3071","artists","type-artists","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","artist_category-representados"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/laplataformabcn.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artists\/3071","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/laplataformabcn.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artists"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/laplataformabcn.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/artists"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/laplataformabcn.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artists\/3071\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3072,"href":"https:\/\/laplataformabcn.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artists\/3071\/revisions\/3072"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/laplataformabcn.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2191"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/laplataformabcn.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3071"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"artist_category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/laplataformabcn.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/artist_category?post=3071"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
