She uses different types of paint, including watercolours and tempera paint in various colours to create the paintings on women's bodies.

"This started a stage in my artistic career where I began to show every aesthetic pressure that against women and non-normative bodies," says Tort Cartró.
"Maybe that inspiration led me to transform stretch marks into art, to work with colour and have the ability to make people reflect on the beauty that they have," she explains.

Through these paintings she wants to "combat the aesthetic pressure" that all women face and to send a message that "all bodies are equally valid".

She says it's important for her that people are made aware that all bodies are different but that "each one of us has beauty".
"We must work together to break aesthetic norms so all people have the ability to love themselves and accept themselves as they are and that we can love ourselves," says Tort Cartró.
"Loving yourself is a revolutionary act," she continues.
