Stage Princesses
On a stage, women transform themselves and leave aside their real lives and fears and dress to be what they have always wanted to be; beautiful princesses, who are admired for their gracefulness and respected for their talent. In this world created by them they feel powerful, bright and courageous. The lights follow them in order to not miss any of their movements.
There is the princess who balances on a ball, the princess on the tight rope, the one on the trapeze, the princess of illusions and the magician one, the princess of dance and the one who sings and many others that are getting ready to amaze us with the beauty of their costumes and the mastering of their movements.

In my work the composition of the painting plays an essential role. With a vision based on magic realism; the objects and figures seem to have been extracted from an undefined time; it is the internal time of the characters, each one submerged in his/her own experiences with a unique and individual rhythm. Trapeze artists and acrobats, among others, are inserted in magic scenarios seeking stability and balance or trying to find a space to be able to exist. They are dressed in colorful costumes which help to hide their true identity and draw people’s attention in a ludic spectacle.
The characters are in constant movement or are definitively static or still, trying to emit body signals in a deep game of introspection and interaction with scenarios that are often not still and that, by means of walls or curtains, only seek to take in and unify this horde of emotions.
