I met Carmen in times of confinement, through social networks, at a time when stopping made me look for answers.

I loved his direct and clear message to women over 40.

Reconnect, come home, love each other, take care of each other, laugh, love their bodies....

Deserve to be happy and stop seeing wrinkles and imperfections and love yourself more.

I am in that vital moment of physical and mental changes and I felt it close.

I know too many women around me who give up after 50.

Who don't look at each other in mirrors, who don't give each other pleasure...

Carmen for me is the symbol of a living woman with bright eyes who lives life freely and authentically, that mirror in which to look at herself, that guide with which to learn.

That's why I proposed to her to create for her, for that woman we would like to be.

Create a kind of shamanic cloak that represents her and makes her feel like a goddess when she wears it, a superwoman in the most special moments, when she teaches other women or does her ceremonies, or simply when she wants to feel like herself.

We were writing and talking a lot and when I had concepts, words, colours... then I made some sketches that I showed him and when he thought it was right, then I started to paint.

I created two different shawls;

a) The front, with warm tones, oranges, pinks, lilacs, beige and a sunset, empty space for whatever comes, peace, calm...and I created a symbol over the heart, to symbolise "happy nipples, happy heart, wisdom".

b) The back, with cold tones, blues, greys and contrast below with flowers in yellows and pinks.

Nocturnal woman running with wolves, water that cleanses, flowering.

Each shawl has a system of joints that allows them to be transformed independently into boleros or together into a tunic.

We did a photo shoot at his home and outdoors, in one of his favourite places, the San Juan reservoir in Madrid.

It became her second skin, the soft, light silk, danced with her, spun, bathed and acquired the meaning for which it was created.

Sensual, beautiful, silk and Carmen merged in an embrace and became one.

It was magical, you can see it in Carmen Romo's wonderful photos.
