Dara Haskins: When Life Gives You Lemons You Paint Them
CURATORIAL STATEMENT
Dara Haskins (b.1992 Baltimore) has rooted her practice in Philadelphia, PA working primarily in painting oil portraits, figurative oil and mixed media paintings. Addressing the ways the black body has been represented and looked at throughout history, she challenges the identity of being seen and unseen connecting historical content to contemporary spaces and how that relationship coexists. Haskins received her BFA at Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in 2019, winning the Franklin C. Watkins Memorial Grant for gifted painters in (2019) and The J Henry Scheidt Memorial Travel Scholarship to Cuba in (2019). Haskins currently lives and works in Philadelphia.
