troopertinas series
Troopertinas emerge from the depths of personal experience and introspection, acting as a visual chronicle of my journey toward healing and self-discovery. Each Troopertina draws from my own life experiences, infusing them with a rich tapestry of symbolism and emotion. Through their expressive forms, viewers are invited to embark on their own introspective journeys, delving into the depths of their inner landscapes.
The melted trooper holds a special place in my heart as it was my first acrylic painting and the sole piece to survive the devastating studio fire. This trooper has become an integral part of my daily life, serving as a reminder of resilience and the enduring power of creativity. As an avid Star Wars fan, the trooper also represents my deep connection to the iconic saga, adding layers of personal significance to its portrayal in my artwork.

They were known for their electrifying performances, but it wasn't just their music that captivated audiences. The Troopertinas were famous for their mysterious masks, each adorned with a humanized trooper head…
…At times, the Troopertinas would lose themselves in the allure of their masks, surrendering to the temptation of their alter egos. Their performances would become a mesmerizing dance of identities, where the line between the Troopertinas and their masked personas would fade away.
