Getting involved with something as intimate as an archive of memories has been a time of crisis in my current production; but also an open window to continue with my ongoing research about the object-oriented ontology, which deals with the irreducibility of objects to their relationships; my object being the photographic one. I decided to question my role as a woman, answer certain questions that society has asked me and give an answer without hesitation, which is coded and decoded with each photographic piece proposed. For this reason, the work stays in a fictional space that oscillates between possible narratives and pure abstraction in Chemigrams and Lumen prints.
The transforming act of being subject to become an object when being photographed, gives way to my explorations, looking for abandoned images and linking them between questions and choices that began before my existence.
