Impossible to translate! Random clippings arranged in a not-so-random naughty story. Best effort by some auto translate sites:

Whahahahh. ‘Unload’? Or ‘offload’? ‘Take a load off?’ Doesn’t sound quite as poetic.
This was so much fun to create. I started with a sketch I made in 2021. I remixed it with (fragments of) three paintings of a strikingly similar theme that I recently stumbled across thanks to The Great Woman Artists Instagram account. These three beautiful paintings were created by Venezuelan-born, [mostly] LA-based artist Luchita Hurtado.

On the ‘The Great Women Artists’ podcast (season 2 episode 16) I hear that Hurtado was also fascinated by rock art and Neolithic images. Another reason to take a closer look at her work. Because rock art, OMG, rock art
