Rio de Janeiro Carnival, Brazil. Gigantic eyes, splashing in colors, stimulating me and intoxicated to be. I was overwhelmed twice, triple. It's just that everything became unfathomable.

María Inés O’Farrell, born in the City of Buenos Aires in October 1963, graduated from the Prilidiano Pueyrredón National School of Fine Arts. Art gives meaning to my life.

Thanks to art I exist.
