Al son

AL SON

"Al son" is a piece created by and for women, in which I aim to make my small contribution to honor and bring visibility to the history of those who have been denied their own voice. Invisible women whose life testimonies have been diluted in anonymity, and also to the rebels, those who managed to achieve their dreams and yet were erased from collective memory, in many cases, simply because they were women.

May this piece serve as my humble tribute to all these women and at the same time serve as a catalyst for those of us who live in the present to move forward, freeing ourselves from the oppression that also exists in our current society, to, together, take a breath and continue advancing towards a path of liberation, acceptance, free choice, and achievement of our own dreams.
