Daniela Urdaneta (b. 1994, Venezuela) is a visual artist based in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. She holds a Bachelor's degree in Fine Arts from Universidad Centroccidental Lisandro Alvarado (UCLA).
Her practice explores the body as a site of memory, gesture, intimacy, eroticism, and movement. Drawing from everyday experience and self-observation, she works through drawing, painting, embroidery, illustration, and digital media to examine the sensation of inhabiting the body and the relationships formed through contact with others.
Her work also includes illustrative series that approach sexuality as natural, playful, and healthy, seeking to normalize conversations around intimacy and relationships.
