The Widow and the Parrot is a short story written by one of my favorite authors, Virginia Woolf. It tells the story of the elderly Gage who, when her brother dies, inherits his house, three thousand pounds and a parrot named James. But the money has disappeared, in his search, with fire included, the parrot helps the old woman adding some intrigue to the narration ... It occurs to me that according to some old beliefs the soul when it leaves the body when dying has the shape of a bird, perhaps the parrot James is the soul of the late brother of the widow Gage ... In The lady of the parrot, a dog and a parrot appear because I think you can tell many stories with animals and their symbols, as in the story of Virginia Woolf. In this way my work includes elements that refer to popular culture, cinema, painting or music. Acrylic, paper 300 gr. Fabriano glued on wood. All my works have a acrylic varnish coat.

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.
