Accept "it"

Fear is a feeling of anguish that can be caused by the presence of a real or imagined danger. It is also a feeling of lack of self-confidence. Throughout her life, Marisa has felt different fears: abandonment, losing loved ones, the dark, the wolf, drowning, not being the person they expected her to be... As she grew, she was able to dispel these fears but others always appeared. Through the drawing embodied in their diaries, these real and imaginary fears are dispelled, they become simple drawings and colored letters. Through his work, he invites us to reflect and tells us: face and accept “it”.

This series of work is an art practice created by the artist herself and has become a regular practice. It consists of choosing one of their agendas from the past, selecting a moment, a day or a week in their history, scanning and printing it and then drawing on it, painting with different markers and even making a collage on paper already loaded with drawings and annotations from a specific date in its history. In this way, the agenda or diary comes together as an element that serves to remember, becoming a channel to accept, heal and forget.
