Every November 1st in Guatemala we celebrate All Saints Day, a traditional day in which it is common to bring flowers like the “immortal” and “siempreviva” (which means: always alive) to monuments that represent the memory of those who have passed away.
For this reason, we built the first sculpture with the shape of a woman made of immortal flowers that represent all women who have been killed, but who will always remain immortal in our memories.
