Waiting for the days to pass by I & II

Waiting for the days to pass by is a portrait of my grandmother. The work examines time, creativity, longing, perseverance and survival. The matrix in Waiting for the days to pass by II is made from my grandmother's crocheted curtains. The work has a variable size that can be adapted either as a monumental installation or in a small-scale format.
