NOTES:

Born in Paris, in 1988, Anastasia Bay is a Brussels-based painter whose dynamic, large-scale works blend classical mythology with contemporary figuration. Her figures are imbued with a sense of movement and tension, often depicting dancers and performers in expressive, contorted poses. Bay’s paintings are characterized by bold lines and vibrant colors, capturing the fluidity and drama of the human form in motion.
