Through this representation, the piece proposes looking at grandparents from a different perspective: recognizing that before becoming family figures, they were also children, had games, toys, dreams, and a particular relationship with their own time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ceramics and textile elements linked to the traditional and the domestic build an image permeated by nostalgia. The smile becomes a bond between past and present, between the girl she was and the memory that remains of her.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe piece thus functions as a tribute to Enriqueta, but also as a starting point for a broader reflection on childhood, memory, and generational legacy. From the intimate, the work seeks to recover those childhoods that remain behind family photographs, objects, and stories, inviting us to recognize in our grandparents not only who they were, but also who they once began as—children.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Teresa Chávez","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54277774934200,"sku":null,"price":15500.0,"currency_code":"MXN","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/6210\/5272\/files\/20261009_035801197_iOS.png?v=1791599576","url":"https:\/\/apoloartgallery.com\/en\/products\/la-sonrisa-de-enriqueta","provider":"Apolo Art Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
