"Adorable and Fragrant"

Art of being: A self portrait in Embroidery

By Micaela Fabiola Aguilar García

If I were asked to describe how I imagine my soul, I would say it is adorable and fragrant, filled with floral and fruity essences, bursting with color and life. With my portrait, I want to give visible form to what usually remains invisible: my brave spirit, which seeks each day to live without fear.

During the process of creating my piece, I understood the importance of looking inward, and there I discovered what is essential: learning to value and respect myself. Today, I define my soul with tenderness and love, for it is the force that drives me to grow.
