Mirar atrás (2023) es una conversación con mi mamá luego de reencontrar una carta que me dedicó en 2011 cuando fui a un retiro. Me reflejo en ella, su carácter es el mío. Nos acompañamos diariamente y cada vez siento más la horizontalidad de su trato. Cuando nací no pudimos estar juntos varios días debido a un accidente en el parto. Mirar atrás es también mirar a los miembros de mi familia con quienes crecí. En esta publicación permanecerán sus memorias. Poco a poco cada uno va tomando el camino que se forja con el corazón. Desde que conocí la imagen y la fotografía me ha gustado realizar publicaciones. Disfruto de hacerlo. Es un camino que poco a poco veo más claro.

Looking Back (2023) is a conversation with my mother after rediscovering a letter she dedicated to me in 2011 when I went on a retreat. I reflect on her, her character is mine. We accompany each other daily and I feel more and more the horizontality of her treatment. When I was born we couldn't be together for several days due to an accident during childbirth. Looking back is also looking at my family members with whom I grew up. Their memories will remain in this publication. Step by step I am discovering my path. I've been making photozines since I got to know how to create them. Now, I can really enjoy what I do.
