Breza Cecchini's paintings transport us to a place that, while not being ours, we recognize through affectivity, thanks to her tale-like narrative, inhabited by archetypal and intersubjective characters: the woman/girl, the black wolves and the white horses. Breza's works have a very deep connection with her and her bucolic existence in a villa in the middle of the Asturian countryside's humid green. Her narrative is as much related to the house where she lives as it is to the houses that inhabit her, the architectures of herself.
Black wolves, traditionally indicative of danger, embrace the protagonists as if to protect and comfort them. At the same time, white horses, generally associated with purity, are nonjudgmental and coexist in harmony with the other characters, offering a perpetual reminder of hope. The situations Breza creates invite us to read between the lines, to decode established imaginaries, and often to transgress the norm, creating contexts where the protagonists fulfill their symbolic function and are transformed into nature, the disturbing, the instinctive and the psyche.
