Johanna Hamann Mazuré (Lima, Peru. July 21, 1954-April 7, 2017) was a Peruvian sculptor. She emerged as a contemporary artist in the early 1980s and she is known for her sculptures that explore and represent the human body through unconventional perspectives. [1]
She became a professor at Pontifical Catholic University of Peru in 1984. Later, she became the director of studies of PCUP's Department of Art and Design and researcher of the public art of Lima. [2]
Hamann studied at the Pontifical Catholic University of Peru (PCUP) where she received a Bachelor of Fine Arts with a mention in sculpture. [3]
She continued her education at PCUP and received a master's degree in Humanities.
In 2011, she received her Phd in Public Space and Urban Regeneration from the University of Barcelona. [4] Her doctoral dissertation, Monumentos Públicos y Espacios Urbanos.

“Barrigas”, (1978-1983). Metal structure, plaste, resin. A sculpture of three hanging "wombs" from meat hooks. This sculpture was created in sharp contrast from the stereotype of pregnancy. Created during Peru's transition from an authoritarian dictatorship to democratic rule, [6] her purpose of this piece was to address the violence women faced in Peru while exhibiting the harmful social expectations of motherhood [1] [7]
