“Honoring the earth, the body, and the wild is an act of resistance
against a culture that seeks to control everything.
Magic is the ability to see the world
as a living fabric of which we are a part.”
Starhawk, Dreaming the Dark, 1982*

The garden as utopia and space of resistance, as a threshold, as a living presence that reveals the ominous and the sacred. The feminine figure traverses a territory where identity becomes blurred and the environment transforms into a reflection of the inner world.

In February 2020, I organized this Artistic Gatherings with Leila Pereira (dancer and performer) in the islands of Tigre´s Delta. This photo-performance series is a process that emerges from the certainty that there is no separation between human beings and their habitat. We are a fabric where energies intertwine.

In alignment with ecofeminist principles, which state that nature and the female body have historically been controlled and domesticated, in Interior Garden, I evoke a return to the wild—a space of freedom where the feminine and the natural reunite without hierarchies or oppression.
