On bodily-thinking and generational healing

A Labor Theory of Artistic Value
a collaboration with artist and filmmaker
Mary Jirmanus Saba
2024

Exploring the intersections between gendered reproductive labour that keeps the cultural space
in motion, and the reproductive labour of motherhood, this collaborative performance combines video projection, a delivered text,
and a performative act of cultural maintenance.

This photographic series is the outcome of a photographic performance I did in the back
yard of my parents house - where I grew up-
in Barranquilla,Colombia

My first approach to photography was through
the genre of selfportrait. With the camera in front
of me I discovered the posibility to use my body
to present and represent ideas, questions, desires, fears; to explore the social construct of feminity embeded in the culture I grew up in
and to develop a way to comunicate with others beyond the spoken or written language.
