I miss the rainy days.

English: I think that since I was very young I love rain and puddles of water. I believe there is something magical about the water that fell from the sky, often unexpectedly. The day gets different, the smell of the air changes, people get transformed. And I often get caught taking pictures and watching the…

Submerge

English: I believe that I have stayed here several times about how the element of water is a great part of my life. I grew up on the shore of a dam and I feel it's like an ocean, I find magic rainy days and taking baths organizes my thoughts. But water and its mysteries…

FLOOD_ Symposium 2

English  At first, I wanted this video to be more poetic. A piece of art by itself. Almost a video statement that could account for presenting me as an artist. When I started putting my thoughts in order and in text format I felt a bit lost- how to summarize everything I'm thinking and building…

Otros Tiempos

English: Earlier this year something very exciting happened to me: for the first time I was hired not only for my video and editing skills but also for my artistic vision in the video. Last January, in Brazil, a great actress and director named Roberta Calza invited me to edit the material she had filmed…

Documenting

English: I always enjoyed listening to stories, even though I was very shy as a young child. I was always curious and very interested in people and their narratives, even today one of my favorite things is listening to conversations on public transport, trying to imagine contexts and events. Maybe that's why I've carried on…

2017/2018 Between Flights #5

English: I can only start this text with a very cliché comment: time always goes faster than I would like. December 2017: another journey involving documents, luggage, airports, homesickness, expectations, and luggage. Another brief visit to São Paulo - Brazil, my city full of contradictions, so loved and hated in the same intensity, that embraces…

Expanding… (Research Paper)

English  Today I finished the frightening Research Paper. After spending so many months of this year sleeping and waking up with the weight of the dissertation over my body, dealing with and learning from my writing-related academic ghosts,  I have to admit that I thought this Paper would be easier. But, as I have posted…

Minhocão

Her object of study is the Minhocão, a large viaduct in the center of the city,…
