romeria. (2024) is part of a triptych titled, Palo santo. Garúa. Romería. (trans. Palo santo. Pilgrimage. Mist.) Two bodies of water, seemingly unrelated, converge in the montage of these images. Romería is a pilgrimage—an infinite story of histories passed from one generation to the next, from one part of the globe to another. This work is part of a series that transposes oral narratives—constructed chaotically, like Borges' infinite library, with fragmented and interwoven threads. When I began this series, I revisited unfinished personal stories and returned to Borges, whose literature has captivated my imagination since adolescence.
