SOME CULTURE...

Wall composition in ceramic tiles (1993)

It is an entirely plastic work, in which the borders of different European countries intertwine in a subtle play of lines. The colour blue dominates the station and embraces passengers completely in work of art where an extract of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights appears in white letters. She juggles, as it were, with mosaics, to which she gives a function by decorating them with words that spread a message for democracy. Her dream is to make an international network of human rights to shake commuters from their lethargy. She describes the work of art in Parvis de Saint Gilles station as: “The metro evokes the relation between European borders and human rights”.
