“With this series, I wanted to play with the concept of childhood, using collage from fashion magazines and toys. As I am an intense person, always looking to experience the present, I seem to forget the past. There is not enough place in my mind for all the data, and that includes my childhood memories. That was the motif to create this photo-narrative, to connect with those years. The adult perspective places the pop icons in curious and weird situations testing darkness but also joy, some adventure, the supernatural, and even religion. In the future, I am considering to keep on doing collage mixed with paints to explore other topics. In a previous series entitled Toxic, I used for the first time the collage technique, and that made me think to keep on working with it in this new project. Childhood has brought something new to my work, both in the form and the content.”
