Artwork. “Las observaciones” was created during a phase in which I reflected a lot on my life and the people around me. The birds represent my desire for freedom, the fish symbolize the relationships in my environment, especially with my twin sister. The sunflowers represent turning toward one’s own light; they bloom and face the light even in difficult situations, while the water, reaching up to my lips, represents both the flow of life and its challenges. My portrait shows me in the midst of life: calm and focused despite all difficulties.
