This work was born from my great admiration for the artist Ciruelo Cabral, whom I had planned to honor for a long time, reproducing some of his mythical dragons. 

The idea of the composition, which integrates the quote to two dragons from Ciruelo to the semi-hidden face of a woman, was generated after a very violent situation that I went through in my work, and that I was not only forced to keep quiet and hide, but also that I was also blamed for the physical attack received. 

My way of sublimating so much injustice and impotence was to capture in a painting what I felt, behind the silent and covered face, where the look and the expression are as uncomfortable as the word, the fury of thoughts that cannot be said are unleashed.

It is a reminder of how cruel society can be when the truth reveals the failures of the instituted system, when the victim is denied and blamed, something so common that it scares, far more than any dragon.
