“Duna Kara na Maria Isabel Gómez”
Participating in the “Duna Kara na Maria Isabel Gómez” project offers a profound opportunity to challenge and redefine traditional beauty standards. By portraying Maria Isabel Gómez , an Afro-Caribbean woman of mixed heritage, we can celebrate the diverse aesthetics that have historically been marginalized. This endeavor not only honors her legacy but also encourages a broader appreciation of beauty in its many forms, fostering inclusivity and challenging entrenched societal norms.
This is My interpretation of this courageous women.
I invite you to experience my feelings when portraying a historical figures like Maria Isabel Gómez,
It’s essential to recognize that Maria Isabel Gómez true essence transcends physical appearance. While her racial background is a part of her identity, it is her remarkable courage, activism, and unwavering commitment to justice that define her legacy.
Through my creative process, I aimed to bring Maria Isabel’s story to life. Her strength and determination resonated deeply with me, and I endeavored to reflect these qualities in my work.
