Carrington produced a diverse body of work spanning painting, sculpture, writing, and theatre design. Born in Lancashire, England, in 1917, Carrington spent most of her life in Mexico, where her artistic practice flourished. Whilst primarily known for her visionary paintings and Surrealist imagery, Carrington’s later years saw an increased focus on bronze sculptures, which continue to captivate audiences for their otherworldly symbolism and narrative depth.

In 'Personajes Fantásticos', Carrington conjures a world populated by fantastical beings that defy conventional categorisation, reflecting her fascination with the fluidity of form and identity. Each figure seems to inhabit a liminal space, part human, part animal, or entirely otherworldly, embodying Carrington's interest in the subconscious, transformation, and the mystical.
