Description:
Pajaritos en la cabeza is a triptych depicting a woman in three distinct emotional and symbolic states, each crowned with a nest inhabited by birds. Each panel portrays a unique chromatic and psychological atmosphere: light and purity, darkness and outcry, and finally, a burst of color and visual madness.

Meaning & Significance:
The work plays on the expression “having birds in your head,” reimagined artistically as a metaphor for eccentric thoughts, dreams, fears, or mental loops. The birds represent both freedom and burden, showing how the female mind can be both sacred and chaotic. It’s a playful yet profound reflection on identity, inner life, and society’s view of madness.
