The young girl and the monsters
Acrylic / collage on canvas
80 x 80 cm
This painting represents “archaic monsters”, these symbolic parasitic characters who prevent any being from accessing its own nature, represented here by the splitting of the young girl into other faces which are erased by these same monsters, whose heads are mounted on a spinal column, thereby signifying their deep and solid presence in the human psychic structure.
The character’s hands seem to want to get rid of these nuisances without daring to touch them.
The neck of this young girl, decorated with a jewel in geometric shapes, has a cross inscribed on the throat (a sign of the author’s inability to communicate) reinforced by a disturbing character whose face is embedded in the neck and who seems to be the master of speech.
The two archaic Monsters were painted in the style of Francis Bacon to accentuate the unreal and ghostly side of these creatures.
