The research analyzes the representations of women in the work of two contemporary artists from Lima: Venuca Evanan and Violeta Quispe. Both are heirs to the legacy of making of tablas de Sarhua, whose origin is Ayacucho (Peru). Since their production in the capital, in the 1970s, the boards have undergone various adaptations of form and content. To understand its current production, “we use the social theory of art is used”. This theory invites us to think not only about the representations (images linked to ideologies) of the plastic object, which are susceptible to our view as first contact, but also its determinants: economic and political processes. The latter are part of what Mirko Lauer (1982) calls material support. These economic and political processes can be identified by carrying out a historical review, which shows the journey of the plastic object (in this case, the Sarhua boards) that travels from Ayacucho to Lima, and the elements that determine its production, distribution and consumption, which implies considering the producers, their social relations, the market, etc. in the analysis. Thus, in this study, the following historical and social events in Peru linked to the production of Sarhua boards are addressed: the migrations from rural areas (like Ayacucho) to urban areas (like Lima) in the 70s and 80s; the birthof popular and contemporary art; and the struggles for gender equality. With this framework, it will be understood how the tablas de Sarhua, which were born as ritual objects, became merchandise and, later, are considered works of contemporary art (likethe creations of Venuca and Violeta), which denounce social problems.
