“My intention is to give voice to the human condition. My passion is to show different realities from my perspective as a woman, through figuration, emotions and reason".
“The Roots series arose because I felt the need to see images that represented indigenous groups as the human beings they are, not from a dreamy or idealized perspective but from a current, humanist, horizontal, and even confrontational perspective.”
“I believe that all art is political, even the one that decides not to be”.
