INGLES
Stages a body that demands patience and appreciation, that is transforming while ageing, living, dancing. Inspired by the patience and focus my body required through surgery and in recovery from endometriosis and tumours, here I take space and time for a ritualistic memento to honour my body and the transformation of women’s bodies who share similar experiences.
ESPAÑOL
SEGUIR pone en escena un cuerpo que exige paciencia y aprecio, que se transforma mientras envejece, vive, baila. Inspirada por la paciencia y la concentración que mi cuerpo requirió durante la cirugía y en la recuperación de la endometriosis y los tumores, aquí me tomo el espacio y el tiempo para un recuerdo ritual en honor a mi cuerpo y a la transformación de los cuerposque comparten experiencias similares

TECH RIDER
Following I would like to share a part of the body journey and creation.
Here you can find text, references, experiences during the process.
Some important experiences that inspired and shaped the work “Seguir” include a series of surgeries I underwent to remove endometriosis, tumors, and a lipoma. These were followed by a diagnosis of CIN III (Cervical Intraepithelial Neoplasia III, also called carcinoma in situ, which is not yet cancer but carries a significant risk of developing into it) and diagnosis of peri-menopause in May 2023.
However, “Seguir” is only my interpretation of these experiences. I wanted to create space and time for other stories to emerge, which has led to the development of a new project: “The womb project”
