Portraits without apparent faces is a mental exercise, to work from our personal beliefs, and try to complete the individual in front of us. Where the detail, the clothing, the objects related to the person and her body, will in a certain sense facilitate notions of the type of person we believe they can be and the social class to which they belong. And in which the physical attributes of each individual complement that other invisible part of my work without an apparent face And it is in that incorporeal portion of the characters in my paintings where everything is created. It is my visual metaphor for thought, that ability to generate ideas and images that cannot be seen but are there. Where everything begins and defines us as people. The compass of each subject to decide how much and where we are going, to get closer to what he wants and move away from what he does not want. In this sense, the legs are vital, they are the support that receives the orders from the brain for each movement to be executed. They allow us to stand or move, to be independent, to maintain balance, to run, to jump, to get up. And in addition to supporting a weight that is physical, they protect and guide a personal story.

She is a former member of the extinct Cuban collectives Grupo Punto and Coordenada Arte-Sur.

El Proyecto 'retratos sin rostros aparentes' pretende ser un trabajo en progreso. Nunca tuve la intención de pintar retratos physiognomic. Mi idea era cambiar el concepto del retrato tradicional en el que el rostro y la expresión son los protagonistas y por eso empezó esta transformación hacia un retrato más 'tipológico' en el que los detalles, la ropa y los objetos que se relacionan con el la persona y su cuerpo son los rasgos que permiten comprender la historia y la clase social del sujeto retratado. La esencia de la serie queda en la parte invisible del cuerpo, en los rostros no aparentes, lo que permite al espectador crear su propia idea sobre el tema ayudado también por los detalles de la parte inferior del cuerpo. Además, me gusta resaltar la esencialidad de las piernas porque son el medio por el que nos movemos. Nos permiten ponernos de pie o movernos, nos permiten ser independientes, correr y saltar. Y además de sostener nuestro peso protegen y guían nuestra historia personal. Cada una de mis realizaciones artísticas son la consecuencia de experiencias vivenciales. Me planteo ante todo un cuestionamiento en cuanto al arte, y tiene que ver con su funcionalidad, capacidad de reflexión, responsabilidad y/o acción simbólica. Como artista realizo obras en base a la idea que tengo, y utilizo el material de acuerdo a su significado implicándolo en el concepto de la obra de alguna manera. Creo que tal vez por esta forma de pensar no tengo como suelen decir algunos una línea de trabajo, ni mi obra puede ser reconocible por esta vía, y es que no me caso con un material específico, todo gira en torno a lo que quiera transmitir. Me atrae hacer giros temáticos en mi obra, sin olvidar las ideas conceptuales.
