Sara Benninga is a contemporary painter focusing on the human figure and narrative.

In her work, Benninga constructs paintings that explore themes of femininity, sexuality, lived experience, and psychological tension.

In this episode, she reflects on art history, questioning how narratives have been visually represented, and why Rubens’ approach was such a breakthrough at the time.
