MEMORY

«Quiero cuestionar los estereotipos y promover una mayor comprensión y empatía hacia las complejidades y emociones involucradas en la maternidad. Quiero transmitir esas experiencias en mi pintura.»

Natalia Santos

Memory is a series of works that explore motherhood from a critical and experimental perspective. The artist addresses the issue by challenging the social idealisation associated with it, giving voice to the stigma and guilt that many women face as they experience feelings of sadness, anxiety, rejection or depression in the face of changes in their bodies and lives.

Pregnancy is a profoundly transformative experience that leaves an indelible mark on the skin of these women. Memoria is a heartfelt tribute to those bodies. To these mothers.
