Fantasías de mi Retrato Familiar, 2014

Video Installation

2014 XXV Biennial Concurso de Arte Eduardo León Jiménez. Santiago, DR

Based on secret stories of my life, created from vague memories, real moments, impressions, and dreams that I've retained from my early life, I have been nurtured to maturity. I work with images that tell stories of bygone moments, thus creating an extract from the forgotten moments and illuminating the unconsciousness of those times, evoking a collision of nostalgia and emotions, resulting in self-discovery. During this exploration, I show that as I am visualizing my future, consequent to the environment around me growing up, and the influence of what my family was. The photographs and videos that support my work involve illustrative images with established elements, serving as a cognitive study of a curious child.
