Starting from a series of thoughts on the territory, while defining or blurring the borders, and terms like traveling and return, I started to film postcards, flashes and/ or blinks of metaphors. These are associations or links that I have with my place of origin, exploring the phenomenon of moving from one place to another, the itinerancies, the hybridization of artistic languages, or geographical spaces.
These images, filmed in Venezuela and Spain, belong to a brief essay of these round trips where I search for a tension built on the idea of being native and foreign; of living in one place and simultaneously identifying with a different cultural background. I built a topography of the memory where family space, the longing for the homeland, and the reconstruction of new geographies are involved. The result is hence the personal geography of utopias and affections.
