"You too know that all my eyes see, all I touch with myself, from any distance, is Diego. The caress of fabrics, the color of colors, the wires, the nerves, the pencils, the leaves, the dust, the cells, the war and the sun, everything experienced in the minutes of the non-clocks and the non-calendars and the empty non-glances, is him."
Frida Kahlo was a Mexican painter known for self-portraits that explore identity, pain, and the body. Her work integrates Mexican folk culture, symbolism, and autobiographical themes. She became one of the most influential artists of the 20th century.
