About The Artwork

They are tears that I enlarged in polished steel that reflects you in them. A mirror, as an allegory of the myth of narcissus. Tears are the awareness of the impossibility that every human being has of being in love with oneself. They have wheels and can be joined or separated depending on the space and stored in a transparent methacrylate box. From a woman’s perspective -the fears, the myths, the stereotypes and the challenges- to transform these into short stories about change. Invite you a take a fleeting into this imaginary world. It is about the psychological acceptance how to aspire to new and better values in this early part of the 21st century because we are living a process of change and women have a great deal to contribute.

Lives and works in Barcelona The work focuses on the strength of human vulnerability. From a woman's perspective -the fears, the myths, the steriotypes and the challenges- to transform these into short stories about change. She invites you a take a fleeting into this her imaginary world. Since 2.001 she has had varius solo and group exhibitions in Spain and Great Britain. She has also collaborated in different, creative projects: the making of an innovative video for a piano concert, various art instalations in public spaces, museums and art centres. One of her works has been acquired by Contemporary Art Museum in the University of Alicante, Spain, for their permanent collection. Statement My work focuses on the strength of human vulnerability from the perspective of the female archetype – life, fears, frailties, myths, stereotypes and struggles- and transform them into short stories of evolution. An imaginary world drawn from daily life and observation, diaries grounded in existential impressions like a box full of vibrations. The materials are as fragile as sloughed skin. The skin is the boundary between the innermost self – the intimate world – and the external – the public persona. Drawings, monotypes, letters and stitching are the tracks and traces of identity, memory and trauma. Shared thoughts that belong to no-one. Reds are the protagonists, purifiers and transformers. Whites are void yet solid at the same time. Everything is on the point of breaking….. when it breaks, it leaves an open wound. Sewn up, it heals. The scars of living. I use make-up to hide and protect the intimate or to seduce. I catch, catalogue and manipulate the exterior world with images – from newspapers, magazines, cinema, myths, and fables – to create new relationships of hope. My ethical and artistic aim is to share these areas of empathy. To create narrative and poetic pulses between these spaces of osmosis, which create bonds of affinity and healing between the self and others.
