Anzoátegui-2018
Short film
Focusing on my maternal family's history, this short film also recounts the experiences of their friends and part of the town's story (Anzoátegui, Tolima). It is set during bipartisan violence, where, despite widespread atrocities, it illustrates how people adapted and built their lives amidst extreme conflict.

Let’s Go, They’re Coming
Videoinstalation
"Let’s Go, They’re Coming" explores the geography of displacement through the personal histories of my mother and grandmother. The work proposes an audiovisual exploration of the paths taken by those fleeing the "birds" (political bandits) during attacks on their village. It is a reconstruction of time and space, where the transition from home to refuge is mapped through immersive soundscapes and a dense layering of imagery. The project aims to materialize memory, creating a sensory dialogue between the historical weight of the "birds" and the ephemeral nature of the paths left behind by those who survived..
Process Notations and Audiovisual Essays
This research centered on Anzoátegui prompted an exploration into the hybrid form of the audiovisual essay. I approached these essays as a liminal space where the ancestral memories of my family intersect with my contemporary lived experience during the production of the installation and film. These process notes allowed me to articulate the emotional and conceptual frameworks of the work. This initial essay specifically probes the nature of the film’s voice-over, reflecting on the difficulty of finding a narrative voice that could hold the weight of the story.
Silence is a space of light
Book
The creative process unfolded in constant dialogue with this book, which served as both a companion and a witness to my research. Within these pages, experiments with words and the weight of testimonies became a way to inhabit the unspoken. This work explores silence not as an absence, but as a fertile space where memory and light converge, allowing the fragments of the past to find a new resonance.
