About The Artwork

Acrílico sobre cartulina pegada a madera sobre bastidor Edith Wharton fue la primera mujer que ganó el premio Pulitzer de Novela en 1921 con La Edad de la Inocencia. Refleja el estricto universo cerrado de los convencionalismos sociales de la alta sociedad de Nueva York a finales del siglo XlX, saturado de leyes que impiden la manifestación espontánea y natural de los sentimientos, siempre aderezado con todo tipo de cotilleos de los personajes. Pero también es la historia de un adulterio frustrado descrito por el protagonista, Newland Archer, deseo que provoca el despertar de su conciencia a una vida sin corsés sociales. Archer se siente atraído por la condesa Olenska, mujer emancipada y criticada de excéntrica por sus tradiciones europeas, quiere ser su amante justificando su deseo de verdadero y diferente frente al desprecio que siente por los otros hombres y sus concubinas. Al mismo tiempo defiende la inocencia femenina, siendo su mujer el modelo de todas las virtudes que una dama debe poseer como la dulzura y la sumisión. La evolución de Archer a lo largo de la narración me produce una profunda tristeza, se tendrá que acomodar a su encorsetado destino frente al desmoronamiento de las creencias y tradiciones en las que creció.

Since childhood, I have been obsessed with paper cut-outs and fashion magazines. My grandmother was a dressmaker who created fashionable suits and dresses from her own patterns. I feel that my work also follows a pattern - parts coming together like a mosaic in which I try to create harmony from a multitude of scraps, eventually finding a rhythm within repetition and patterns that resemble textile designs. My work evokes a carefree, dreamlike landscape, full of beauty, fullness of colour and textures. I take pleasure in breathing life into the idols of old movies and re-imagining them in scenes of my own making.
