'To embrace absurdity it’s necessary to embrace animal nature . 

Each distinctive animal has its own emblem background, figures that recall childhood and their naive activities, but when we look at Del Estal's paintings we can see that they’re playing, and that game is for adults. 

Desire, lust, isolation, recreation, urban life, faithful portraiture, a scar of loneliness, the freedom to be passionate for the pleasure of being interposed between them.

This is how Maia Del Estal presents "creatures",  a sort of pop and figurative malformation, where joy and imagination are in control of her works, of her life, of herself.’
