“When they told me that they were going to remove my breast, I immediately thought wow! I'm going to be a woman without a breast, what a shock. So I said: I have to change that thought and I think that there are many women who also need to change that thought, that a woman's body is two breasts and hips... So I said to Raúl, the artist, why don't we make a mould and use it for one of his 'flaws'. He loved the idea, he told me that it was very useful, very valuable, but that he needed me to show my face to give it that personal, close, personal touch of someone who has been through it."

21. SOUNDBITE (Spanish) Gil-Manuel Hernández, director of the Museu Faller of Valencia.
“There is still a representation of women that is still too sexualised, too conventional and too heteropatriarchal (dominance of heterosexual males in society) but, both in the posters and in some fallas, the experimental ones and in the conventional ones, we can see that women are starting to be shown in a different way. More in the orbit of the feminist demands, in all the diversity that this implies. Also in sexual diversity, in the demands of the LGBTQ+ community.”
