The work is born in the soundscapes of four traditional kitchens, which explore intimacy through the culinary daily life of the women who stay there. These remote places, framed within the Coffee Cultural Landscape, declared a World Heritage Site by Unesco in 2011, reveal traditional culinary practices through the exercise of listening, landscapes that open up to blind ears to fight against oblivion, to allow those interacting with the need to preserve it.

This work is part of the research-creation project “The Ruin as a concept for a visual narrative in a transmedia world. Views of Venezuelan immigrants in the city of Manizales”, developed by a group of researchers from the University of Manizales and the University of Caldas. The exploration of the concept of Ruin -understood as ways of inhabiting, transiting and staying within a territory- was carried out based on field work with a group of Venezuelans living in Manizales, who have arrived in the city due to the social, political and economic conditions of their country, and that from their condition they have established themselves as inhabitants of a new territory, recognizing and adapting to new social and cultural dynamics.

In software and electronic devices, I find potential vehicles for the investigation and visualization of my research and theories.

Immersive plays with the Op art concept and minimalism content to produce illusions and unlimited perspective. Projection plays with delay and echo in a rhythmic progression of abstract patterns to create a re-composition of time and space.
The project I want to see you! It begins with a specific action: Provoking the emigration of images, photographs that had belonged to a family album but were for sale in antique markets in the City of Bogotá that open only on Sundays. These photographs physically traveled across the Atlantic Ocean and were received by Lluís Estopiñan and Nataly Prada in the City of Barcelona.
