"The palm trees on the reverse are a delusion; so is the pink sand". This line, taken from a poem by Margaret Atwood, lights the path traced in "Postcard". As the years go by, landscapes transform, take on new meanings, and hold onto joys that will never be regained. The sea and the beach, once stages of happy summers, romances, and encounters, will turn into concentration camps or centers of detention and torture. This occurs across different times and places. In this piece, I embark on a journey through some of my works that explore the relationship between testimony, spaces, and time, engaging in dialogue with the beautiful film directed by Alejandro Segovia in 1972.

Autopsia de un relato periodĂstico

Film stock documentary on repression and violence against women, and how this violence is represented and replicated in film and television since its inception. From the burning of witches to the femicides of today, through the repression and control of the church and society in our bodies and in our way of existing as women. Through a compilation of films, television programs and manipulated dialogue we see how these stereotypes and violence against women continue to be replicated in real life and today.
