I Made A Street Art Project For Women.

I paint lace patterns on walls all around the world, because they are beautiful and very feminin. This time I was invited to Belorado in Spain by the curator Estela Rojo and an artist Regue Fernández, to a project that addresses the presence of women in public space. In this region, a popular game practiced only by women for hundreds of years is the local type of bowling. The project aimed to restore this tradition.

We painted all the Plaza San Nicolas frontages. This square was a place where local women played bowling. I found and painted local lace motifs and Regue the figures of local women, based on photos from an old city’s chronicle.

Many people came to the opening of the square in the new decor. There was a lot of joy, laughter and fun. Perhaps some of the older ladies playing bowling again are girls from black and white photos that Regue painted around…

    I create works that are somewhere in between street art, pottery, painting and sculpture. Most of my work consist of prints of traditional laces, made in clay or painted on the walls. Why laces? Because in laces there is an aesthetic code, which is deeply embedded in every culture. In every lace we find symmetry, some kind of order and harmony, isn’t that what we all seek for instinctively? Why street art? Because it gives freedom.
