Ana Teresa Barboza’s work is tied to her physical environment in many ways, even in concept. Her work is meditative weaving, exploring traditional techniques with the more modern language that we use to decipher the environment around us. Her work goes beyond landscape or territory and needles into the shifting relationship we have with our environment - persecutor, persecuted, admirer, admired, creator, destroyer. Ana is celebrated for her work, and its message, with a list of solo exhibitions, and awards, including from the biennales of Helsinki, Sydney, and the 15th Cuenca Biennale. In 2019, she won the First National Prize for Art and Innovation from the Museum of Contemporary Art in Lima; in 2010, the First Prize from the Central Reserve Bank of Peru.
