Ouka Leele - Rapelle Toi, Barbara!
Artist Biography: Barbara Allende Gil de Biedma (Madrid, 1957), known by the artistic pseudonym of Ouka Lelee, is one of the protagonists of the Madrid Movida of the early eighties, her work being especially representative of the free spirit of the time and the artistic trends that developed around it.Barbara lived the open-minded climate of the sixties that existed in Barcelona and Madrid with the concerns of a youth that sought in art the paths to the future democracy. Her art is the result of change, of the need for latent expression after a period of repression, with a long career that stands out for the mastery of technique and constant creativity. Her most characteristic works are her black and white colored photographs and her Prints, which have been exhibited all over the world in cities such as Paris, London, Tokyo, Lisbon, Sao Paulo or New York.Self-taught, she has been able to create a unique personal universe recognizable by the general public in which she is often the protagonist. This is the case of the work presented here, where through her striking colors and an undeniable imagery of her own, she does not hesitate to disguise herself as Dolorosa to recreate a metaphorical fiction, while at the same time making us accomplices of everyday realities loaded with symbolism.
