Inspired by a fusion of the concepts of “mestizaje” and “saudade”, Dorronsoro creates an abstract representation of small details of her memories of Venezuelan landscapes with textures and shapes reflecting her culture. “Mestizaje” is a complex, beautiful, and at times contentious concept that lies at the very heart of the Venezuelan identity, referring to cultural and racial mixing. Although the Portuguese word “saudade” is often thought of as untranslatable, it is less of a mystery and more of a profound emotional ache, describing a deep state of nostalgia or melancholic longing for something or someone that one cares for and loves but is absent, a melancholic yet hopeful recognition of the passage of time and the distance between "here" and "there. Dorronsoro wants to strike a balance between usefulness and beauty, and to respect materials and their qualities.
