In Utero

A few months before I was born, I in my mother's womb almost experienced death. In the early hours of 1994, when she witnessed my father's betrayal, she ran to the beach to throw herself into the sea, about to perform such an attitude, and was warned by a black man who was there not to commit suicide "Don't do this woman, for the child you carry is not to blame for it." This episode has accompanied me throughout my childhood and maybe it's one of the great reasons i paint black people. 02/11/2022
