‘Promise’ is a lengthy project I’m still working on and will
consist of several works.
I remember myself as a little girl often playing on my own. One
of the things I did was to bury my dolls (my girls) in a secret
place in our backyard. I fantasized about a magical dreamworld
where my girls were going to.
‘Promise’ shows a physical space that stands for a symbolic,
transcendent space in another kind of world inhabited by these
children.
The beauty of childhood and this fantasy is further emphasized
by the careful and meticulous editing of my works.
