KO Print

KO is part of a series of works that takes us to the boxing matches and their backstage. Dancing with are a set of works arise from the initiation of the artist as a boxer in 2019. Two years later she begins to produce the work from the trainings and fights in the municipal gym of Aluche, in Madrid. From these encounters she has wanted to represent boxers with their own name as contemporary heroic figures, and also as fragile martyrs. From the pictorial point of view, I have developed a system of work based on drawings from life, recordings of fights and movement studies, from which I try to capture the slowed down time of a fight and its in-betweens. She paints in acrylic with large spots of color that are mixed directly on the canvas to form the figures. For Blanca, behind the ring there are issues beyond the figure of the winner and violence; boxing is also a sport of care and affection, of recovery and self-awareness. Beyond the technical aspects of the sport, through the portrait she discovers in the figure of the boxer men and women dedicated to the mental and physical sacrifice of being a fighter, with a spirituality equal to their effort and their closeness to death.
