My work explores themes related to gender, the body, and sexuality, through personal narratives that I conceive as part of a collective female imaginary. Dreamlike and abstract representations of the body are integrated into the compositional narrative of my pieces, where, at times, written words accompany, re-signify, and contextualize the image.
These bodies are embroidered and overflow across fabrics, generally unstretched, in a gesture that challenges the limits of the traditional frame. I collect images found in erotic and vintage magazines, old slides, postcards, various wrappers, and tickets. I often appropriate these images and recontextualize them as a visual poetic exercise, portraying bodies that are simultaneously public and anonymous.
These images transform into stencils, stamps, and transferable drawings, composing the space of the artwork through repetitive and random prints.
My practice is woven from an identity that fragments, shifts, and transforms in each of the series that shape this ongoing artistic investigation.
