Photo collage Journal
Collage paired with photos from my phone while being confined at home with my 3 kids and my husband, march-june 2020.
During that time I was not able to visit my studio, and with three kids in a flat feeling spring bloom around was difficult to cope with, and it was difficult to find a flow in the creation process. I did small works with my kids beside me, those works were done just to navigate the uncertainity of those days, but slowly they started to become a place were meet creation and connect with again with my own art language that is collage.
After a few days I started to pair my collages to some of the photos on my phone, some done by my kids. It was a calm moment to find the perfect photo among all the hundreds done in one single day.

Installation wall at the exhibiting space of Espai d’Art at Llinars del Vallès , Barceloan, 2023
The project was installed as a big collage itself. Even I already had paired the collages with some photos, the installation offered to the viewer an opportunity to create their own pairings. And dive into the vibes of those strange confined days back to the spring 2020. Photo and collage installation wall at the exhibiting space of Espai d’Art at Llinars del Vallès , Barceloan, 2023
