‘In sleep’

 

Robalo and Cecchini create in the moment of their inspiration, carrying out a catharsis; a release during the making of the pieces. Among their frequent themes are memories from childhood. For this reason, the girls are recurring characters, although they have a mysterious air and serious faces; they seem absorbed in their thoughts. They are not strict allusions to the authors' childhood, but it is worth paying attention to the question of childhood, because, alluding to the surrealist theorist André Breton —in his First Manifesto of Surrealism—, it is synonymous with freedom: ''childhood, in which everything concurred in the effective and unrestricted possession of oneself''.
