About The Artwork
A need arises from me to reach our lost psychic heritage and rescue a mythical level of consciousness, releasing images from the depths of our ancestral collective consciousness. The image of the Goddess. The worship of the goddesses has been observed since the Paleolithic era and was maintained with great strength for thousands of decades in most primitive agricultural societies. These prehistoric and matrifocal cultures that predominated in many geographical points around the world, were peaceful societies, respectful of the earth, who honored motherly wisdom. They existed in harmony with each other and with nature for most of human existence, they were the creators of the foundations of human culture. A later patriarchal, nomadic and warrior stage, was imposed through the Indo-Aryan migratory waves that began to arrive in Europe from 4500 BCE, came to impose the model that continued to be reproduced for the last 5000 years in Europe and later America with colonization. The orbs I paint are symbols that call upon the return of the Goddesses of our prehistory, they contain the miracle of creation, birth and the power to transform reality and death into life through the mysterious and cyclical regeneration of nature. The unity of all things in nature, personified by the Goddess, the primordial energy, the power that governs the universe, the divine Mother who gives life and provides material and spiritual nourishment, and who in death takes us back to the cosmic womb. I use this narrative by resorting to a femininity and an ancestral somatic impulse that refers to the Anasyrma (the ancestral ritual act of displaying the female genitalia) by showing the Goddesses hatching in the cosmic womb, as a shield, an affirmation, an invocation to the rebirth, an act to affirm that another world is possible and thus claim it

Costa Rica
I create as means for expression of the female psyche, the exploration of eroticism and the search for freedom through sexuality as a way to counteract the female oppression. My objects are inspired by the tropical exuberance that has always surrounded me and accompany me thru my becoming. I examine forms of nature, especially flowers and their relationship with the erotic and creative energy, using colors, layers, and aggressions to the canvas. I have been inclined to use paint in because of a fascination that I have since I was a child, with colors and visual aesthetics. I also experiment with knits and fabrics because I am passionate about the geometry and the symbolism present in the techniques used historically by women. I have a need to connect with people and contribute in some way to these obsessions.
