Paradox

My artistic composition is built through photographic practice using the double exposure technique with images from places pertaining to my affective memory.

This work was based on an investigation into female relations within society. All the political, social, and religious issues involved in being a woman nowadays. The image demonstrates the relationship of my body with the physical space and its specificities, which contribute so much to the construction of my identity as to its deletion among the collective.

I approach the relationship between past and future in the construction of this feminine universe full of stereotypes, as one absorbs another on that conflicted network in which I find myself. I feel the emptiness of not belonging to any of those two moments, reflected in the erasure of this body in time and space. The suffocation of not recognizing this universe filled with contradictions, standards, questions, and unrealized aspirations A loneliness facing the world and people. A reflection on the frailty of life. I live with the fear of this lack of control over my destiny—a fear of life and death.
