Wynnie Minerva's work addresses themes related to gender issues, identity politics, and female desire, challenging boundaries and conventions. Her figures rebel against binary definitions, inhabiting a space of freedom that subverts a historically imposed passivity. The Nightmare II (2023), part of a triptych, presents the abstract body as its central theme, traversing multiple stages of transgression. Set in an expansive future, free from social, racial, and gender categorizations, the work proposes a transformative scenario of infinite possibilities.
