Manuela Viera-Gallo, Untold Stories

Manuela Viera-Gallo’s work focuses on her experiences with inequality (from her own history as a Chilean born in exile) and attempts to disassemble patriarchal systems in political and civic arenas. In her paintings, she uses anonymity to highlight a multitude of voices that challenge stereotypes in the traditional representation of women, as seen in her mural Puente (Bridge), where multiple masked faces come together.
