Rebecca Torres is a Philly-born Puerto Rican artist, whose practice includes encaustic and oil painting, digital art, mixed-media collage, and printmaking.
Her artwork is deeply influenced by the softness and warmth of femininity, juxtaposed with the harshness and trauma inherent in womanhood. While her pieces often feature alluring figures, harmonious colors, and rich textures, they also invite the viewer to look beyond the surface, as she explores the complexities of the human experience and offers a subtle narrative of the hope and beauty that arises from hardship.
