VUELA VUELA CORAZÓN
(Fly Fly My Love)
One of a kind Digital Scenography by Anaitté Vaccaro.
Clay, LED, Circuitry, 3D Print, Arduino, Sensor, Resin
Vuela Vuela Corazón is an ode to love, imagination, innocence, and legacy — a journey where reality and dreams dissolve into one another, fluttering away to distant horizons. Like the wings of a butterfly, even the smallest gesture of love or hope carries the power to stir unseen currents, shaping lives, futures, and worlds far beyond our reach.
The title comes from the chorus of Las Maripositas, a song composed by my father in Guatemala, Hugo Leonel Vaccaro. In it, he sang of us sisters as butterflies, poised to take flight on wings of tenderness and hope. His words offered both encouragement and prophecy: a reminder that transformation is always possible, that we carry the dreams of those who came before us, and that each flight becomes part of a greater legacy.
The woman’s belly glows responsively when approached or touched, as if awakened by your presence — a luminous response that evokes anticipation, connection, and the intimacy of new life. This interactivity transforms the viewer from a passive observer into a participant, instilling an awareness of their own existence within the continuum of creation.
Vuela Vuela Corazón invites us to dream, to remember, and to pass on legacies of tenderness and imagination. Like butterflies in motion, our stories ripple outward, carrying hope into tomorrow. What begins as a fragile wingbeat becomes the force that sustains the timeless cycle of love and dreams.

Luz de Mi Sol — a name my child conceived, whose own name means “light” — draws from the radiant force that sustains all existence. The sun is more than a celestial body; it is the brightest star, illumination, warmth, and the primal spark from which life and growth unfold. Its brilliance touches every corner of the Earth, nurturing seeds into forests, awakening waters into oceans of movement, and igniting the cycles that sustain us.
Within the sculpture, her belly holds this power: a singular bulb, half bare light, half golden film. The luminous half shines inward, bathing her in warmth as she gazes upon it with passion and love, a private radiance between mother and child. The golden half, mirrored like a fisheye lens, reflects the viewer and their surroundings, forcing them into the work. This reflection is not passive but a question: how will this creation affect you? What role do you play in shaping the universes that new life sets in motion?
Here, intimacy and universality converge — the tender glow of a mother contemplating her child and the inescapable reminder that creation ripples outward, implicating us all.
ABOUT THE SERIES
Privilegio de Crear Universos
(Privilege of Creating Universes)
Series of One-of-a-Kind Digital Scenography Sculptures
This series invites viewers into the unseen, metaphorical, and surreal, where a woman’s belly becomes a universe in its infancy — a cosmos not yet born but brimming with infinite potential.
Each sculpture interprets the belly as a microcosm and macrocosm, a canvas of creation. Through clay, blown glass, LED, circuitry, 3D print, paint, wood, electricity, and programming, the works embody both the intimate and the cosmic — transforming the belly into a luminous threshold between potential and manifestation.
Privilegio de Crear Universos is an homage to motherhood as both biological and metaphorical: the act of bringing forth life, ideas, and worlds. It honors the courage of those who choose to create — whether shaping a child, an artwork, or a dream — and celebrates creation as an expression of autonomy, imagination, and boundless possibility, regardless of sex or gender.
What we choose to create is never neutral; it ripples outward, shaping not only ourselves but the world we inhabit — touching other people, societies, and even the natural environment. Each act of creation carries the potential to nurture or to transform, to seed futures and reimagine what is possible. In this sense, the series is also a meditation on responsibility: a reminder that every universe we bring into being has the power to alter the shared fabric of existence.
