Las Niñas With this collection I want to reclaim the figure of women in folk tales and do away with the paternalistic aura they are treated with. It has always bothered me how folklore has shaped the behaviour of women and girls and tended to show them as fragile, dependent and decorative. Girls, in other words, who needed rescuing. With these totems I want to give back what was taken from them: character, independence, strength and presence.
