“Maternity”: Full size pieces |The “Flying Pig”: Piggy 35 x 28 cm

“Maternity”
The sow sculpture with small pigs, called “Maternity” represents the “Mother”, as the main character in the child of her children, strength of the family, who protects and feeds. Work that shows, to a certain extent, the work of women who take care of their children in the absence of a father figure. This exhibition was presented for the first time at the Eggo Fair - Centro Cultural Recoleta in Buenos Aires, in 2013.

The “Flying Pig”
As a result of this work, the figure of the flying pig appears, as a body that leaves its mother's care around the world in search of new horizons.
This piece was presented at Galeria Valk – Buenos Aires in 2021, in a solo exhibition, along with the first silkscreen prints made from photos of the work. Limited series signed by the artist.
