The artist has confessed that one of her muses is her own grandmother, which is why older women are recurrent in her imaginary. With them she tries to communicate the desire to reach old age with full vitality. Capdevila has worked on advertising projects for brands such as Reebok, Zara, Bershka, Movistar, Estrella Damm, TV3, Freixenet and has painted murals in different places in the United States such as Florida, New York or California as well as in Mexico, Switzerland, Italy, Canada, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Austria or Spain.
