Hi. At first I didn't know where to start and had all the meanings jumbled up...then I remembered that art is just that, a means of expression and each person gives it a meaning making the piece have a special value for whoever perceives it. The other thing was to capture the central idea in a single image. Here I had the idea of knitting an amigurumi of a woman with the appearance of a fighter and then I asked myself why a woman if violence is not a human action. And so I came up with something that identifies humanity in general, without restriction of age, gender, origin, social class, skin colour or anything else.
The #artesinviolencia initiative was recently launched by a group of young people who, through art and phrases, promote the recognition and reduction of all types of violence. Currently in many countries it is normalised to live in a violent environment and this must change for the better. Good vibes!.
