Rebeca Khamlichi (Madrid, 1987) is a painter, illustrator, and writer. Her creative universe is a vibrant collision of graphic design, 17th-century religious iconography, animated cartoons, copla music, and Goya\u2019s Black Paintings. <\/p>\n
Her debut graphic novel, The Daughters of Antonio L\u00f3pez (Las hijas de Antonio L\u00f3pez, Cross Books, 2024) was unanimously praised by critics. It reflects her and her sister\u2019s childhood in a hostile family environment shaped by religious fanaticism, neglect, and addiction\u2014a setting teeming with ghosts where innocence and harsh reality blend in a delicate, emotional, admirable, and profoundly healing way.<\/p>\n
She has a greyhound with a human name, a cat named after a fruit, and a house named after a mode of transportation. She paints on a terrace in Madrid overlooking the rooftops of Lavapi\u00e9s. And she does it, she says, because\u2014for now\u2014acrylics are still available without a prescription. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1156,"template":"","class_list":["post-1392","av_autor","type-av_autor","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
