2011 UTOPIAN ADORNMENT
collage on paper

My utopian project is to pack my birth house with the sheets of my diaries. The end result is a drawing of my birth house covered with sheets of my diaries put inside a light box. A little flip book is added to tell the process of covering the house with the sheets.

2010 HOME-ART
This is an installation of photographs. I wanted to work with books because they can reflect the personality of person without seeing them. It is subject present in every house, in every room and tells us more about the person living there. During my erasmus in Linz (Austria) I went to different houses and made instalation with the books that the person(s) had in there homes, working with the space that was offered to me. It was really interesting to see the possibilities. I document this with making photos of the installations.

2009 STER, ESTRELLA, STAR, STERN, ÉTOILE, STELLA
This work is an instalation of boxes that I used moving around. I created a wall with them because it has been a struggle starting over again, creating a home from a house, at the same time it has made me realize that I can be home everywhere or that I will never be at home nowhere. Threw a small opening in the middle of the wall of boxes you can look and you see a light, a new beginning, hope. The pillow is my own when I was a little girl, it is an object that represented home. Later when I grew up I started hanging these glow in the dark stars in every new room I moved into, so I would knew when I slept in my new house that I was at home. Does home mean where I am as an person?

My house is a model. I started with writing a poem about my house. I made an reflection about when does a house become a home. The book is a personal book of my youth and I cut out the chapter that represented for me the feeling of home. Through the book pieces of wood create a new space or a path reflecting the past. The colors have meanings and my personal feelings.
