Part of the Quiero dormir cansada series, this work reflects Poblete’s exploration of exhaustion, escapism, and the disorienting space between wakefulness and sleep. The series title references a song by Mexican singer Emmanuel, evoking the artist’s experience of emotional longing and physical fatigue during its creation.
Using vivid colors and abstract forms, Poblete captures a fragmented, dreamlike world where sleep and dissociation offer temporary relief from the burdens of daily life. The piece conveys both a sense of disconnection and longing, representing the artist’s attempt to escape the constant mental activity and anxiety of wakefulness.
