In 2013, the MUSA presented the exhibition Todos mis muertos (All of my Deceased), with over two hundred and fifty pieces, between found objects, installations and drawings. Since then, the museum has kept an untitled piece by the artist in its collection made with graphite, watercolor and silverpoint. Silverpoint is a technique requiring a high degree of skill and precision. Added to these elements are touches of color made with the artist’s own blood, and using a synthetic material made with a mixture of natural resins used in construction as support for the drawing. She uses a minute drawing to faithfully reproduce the look of a millennial tree trunk uprooted from the earth, with lines that appear saturated in the shaded sections and less dense in the lighter areas.
