Statement
Combine graphic and pictorial solutions in her work, alternating the use of paint and graphics. Develop, through the appropriation of images taken from the news media, an object, the result of which is hybrid. Starting from the newspaper and its layout, more specifically from the female images that illustrate the advertising pages of the spa and massage section, and from the female figure of the Greek statuary, create intersections between these two iconic sources of opposite tradition.
