a hurricain entered my house 2018
I trace an intimate journey through the process of my pregnancy and birth of my daughter in 2017. Other intimate transformations were added shortly after, such as moving from Mexico City to live in Madrid, and the gender transition of my partner between 2018 and 2020. The resulting hurricane transformed everything in its path, including my way of understanding and approaching the artistic process. Hurricane is flesh of the wind, book of the night, (M.)ap to cut the winds and mediumistic knowledge (women who think with their body).

flesh of the wind
Flesh of the wind is an investigation between drawing and body. I made eleven drawings with organic matter. I made a handful of brushes made with found branches and my own hair. These actions were an incantation to return to my body after the first years of motherhood.
