The washerwoman by the river rises towards the sky, enveloped by a golden backdrop that evokes the sacred. The weight of the clothes she carries transforms into a symbolic burden—our sins—which, in the ascent, becomes light.
The writing that runs through the work appears as a prayer of intercession. A humble figure who, through effort and sacrifice, becomes a symbol of redemption and transcendence.
