The invention of Frida, body art, impossible motherhood. Interview with Vilma Coccoz
The greatness of Frida Kahlo, as a woman and as an artist, is fascinating. More than honoring her work, this interview intends to highlight what Frida had to traverse of femininity, to meet and find the formula of existence in her journey. Her confrontation with failed maternity and their abortions, were the relentless pursuit of wanting to "be complete" in the creation. Beyond her ravaging love for Diego, who was almost everything; only her painting would be what will allow sketching a solution, immersed in a habit in which to dress up a cracked and aching body.
