Saqra
El Saqra me fascina por esa contradicción: una figura demoníaca que forma parte de una celebración religiosa. Esa tensión entre lo sagrado y lo profano fue lo que quise llevar a la obra.
También incorporé pequeños apliques brillantes colocados uno a uno, buscando que la pintura no solo se viera, sino que tuviera una presencia física, textura y huella de lo hecho a mano.
English translationThe Saqra fascinates me because of its contradiction: a demonic figure that is part of a religious celebration. That tension between the sacred and the profane is what I wanted to bring into the painting.
I also added small shiny appliqués, placed one by one, so that the painting would not only be seen but have a physical presence, a texture, the trace of something made by hand.
