About the artwork

This work unfolds its effect through a dense fusion of symbolism, colour intensity and cultural depth. The impressive portrait of a Mexican woman, inspired by La Catrina, the legendary figure of Día de los Muertos - symbolising dignity in the face of death, memory and cultural identity - takes centre stage on the right.

Depicted from head to shoulder, she is dressed in a festive gown, adorned with golden neck and ear accessories that surround her appearance like a majestic frame. Her face is skilfully painted, decorated with ornaments that balance between solemnity and transience - a visual language that combines tradition and personal expressiveness.

Her black hair, streaked with golden strands, is interwoven with a luminous wreath of flowers in orange, blue, purple and yellow - a floral halo reminiscent of altars, offerings and the ritual of remembrance.

The woman's closed gaze is directed upwards to the left, where further magnificent blossoms in warm shades of red and orange with green leaves hover, as if inviting the viewer on a journey through time, memory and cultural myths. The composition intertwines symbolic elements, colours and shapes to create a feast of sensuality and spirituality that celebrates the cultural power of life and remembrance.
