Here, overview of the project " The Throbbings", a serie of portraits ( paintings and digital animation) of women artists, with the portrait of Camille Claudel, Frida Khalo, Beyonce Knowles, Simone de Beauvoir and others.
Transmission 3/3, 85x61 cm, oil on canvas, acrylic gold, lacquer. 3rd canvas of the series “Transmission”, theme of “mother to child”. A timeless theme that caught the artist in spite of herself. This third proposal was born from a photo of a friend of the artist and his son. The artist was touched by universal tenderness and peace.

Requiem for an Self Portrait. Poster of 170x120 cm. Digital image made of accumulation of more than 130 drawings with the bic. The work of fragmentation of the body imposes itself in this immense self-portrait, in a wink, to the self-analysis of our time. Questioning the issues of self-portraiture in art at the time of the total and totalitarian popularization of the selfie. The bus shelter format of the poster is a reminder of the mercantile exploitation of the image of the human body.
