Juliet of the Spirits (1965)

Silvana Jachino: Dolores

Quotes 

• Dolores : My art is deeply spiritual. You say no, eh? Let's give back to God his physicality. I was afraid of God. He crushed me, terrified me. And why? I imagined him abstractly. But no. He's got the most superb body ever. In my statues, he's a physical God, a perfectly shaped hero that I can desire and make my lover.

  [excited laughter] 

• Dolores : Sculpting, cooking and making love: my three vocations!

• Dolores : You haven't seen my new works. Looking at my statues isn't enough. You must touch them. Try. I touch them, I shiver. They feel alive. Michelangelo shouted at his Moses: "Speak!" I'd like to shout at these powerful forms: "Love me!" I really would.
