JUANITA FORTUNA Sculpture

I think I started a contact with creativity in the early 60's making small colorful designs and plastic shapes, as a way to have fun and as a bargaining chip to gain approval and sympathy, in a childhood that was a little bored by vulgarity. Then, an adolescence with the imposed obligations of the system, wanting to model myself according to the value schemes, based on tastes that I did not share, led me to a deep contact with the world of the imagination in which I felt comfort and freedom. I sincerely believe that I have found in it a beautiful and constructive reality. In the 70s, with a young West, clamoring and making profound changes in many areas, I was called to integration and active participation. To make this participation a fruitful path, I approached good PEOPLE who, in exchange for nothing, taught me how to maintain balance on this sidereal bicycle, until I could more or less pedal, without leaving a hidden but grandiose vigilance at any time. Evidently, by putting these things together I have used my true work in my modus vivendi. I can assure you that all my work has been and is being executed with the same energy impregnated in the search, and sometimes the finding, of the good and the beautiful, so that you enjoy it as much as I do in making them possible.
