Leslie Hornby weighed 40 kilos and was 160 cm tall. I worked in a hair salon and did not follow any aesthetic canon of those stereotypical 60s. But, suddenly, Leslie was given the opportunity to continue being herself in front of the cameras, on the catwalks and in the film studios, and she became a symbol of the new beauty . the one who with a sad look, androgynous appearance and short hair, revolutionized what was formal, what was established. So he became a star, an icon named Twiggy who, even today, is considered one of the British myths on a par with the Beatles.
René Mäkelä makes a habit of putting women at the center of his creations. Twiggy, Jane Birkin, Cara Delevingne, Coco Chanel, Frida Kahlo... are some of her preferences when creating works as spectacular and applauded as this one twiggy which he made in 2018 in oil on canvas, and with an unmistakable fluorescent style that does not eclipse that sad and transgressive look of a myth of fashion and cinema like Twiggy was and is.
