"There are parts of me that only exist because I can trace them."

"Hay partes de mí que sólo existen porque puedo trazarlas".

I've been writing down ideas and sketching for a few weeks, although not as many as I would like. Fortunately I have time to continue doing it.

Hace algunas semanas que he estado apuntando ideas y haciendo bocetos, aunque no tantos como quisiera. Afortunadamente tengo tiempo para seguir haciéndolo.

This is how this series is born, full of the invisible images of my expectations, frustrations, and hopes; of things that exist without names, and I know they exist because I can draw them. Hundreds of fragments of me that are there, incomplete, that are barely. But they exist.

Así empieza a nacer esta serie, llena de las imágenes invisibles de mis expectativas, frustraciones, esperas; de cosas que existen sin nombre, y sé que existen porque puedo dibujarlas. Cientos de fragmentos de mí que están allí, incompletos, que están apenas. Pero que existen.

This is the first work of this series that I publish, and it is now available at Rarible (Click to go to my Gallery). There are some more of them waiting for their moment. It will include self-portraits and portraits of others in whom I identify, of imaginary people that I contain, and of people who are not me but who inhabit me because they love me or loved me, because somehow when someone leaves a mark on you, it is like its existence will be anchored to your memory, and will also begin to inhabit you.

Esta es la primera obra de esta serie que publico, y que está ahora disponible en Rarible (Haz click para ir a mi galería). Hay algunas más de ellas esperando su momento. Incluirá autorretratos y retratos de otros en quienes me identifico, de personas imaginarias que contengo, y de personas que no soy yo pero que me habitan porque me aman o me amaron, porque de alguna manera cuando alguien deja una huella en ti es como su existencia se anclara a tu recuerdo, y empezara a habitan también en ti.

This series is called Nocturna, because it takes place in my nights of dreams and insomnia.

Esta serie se llama Nocturna, pues transcurre en mis noches de sueños y de insomnios.

Gracias Vivi. Ultimamente me ha pasado que ya a las 2am no puedo seguir durmiendo. Prefiero pararme a crear que quedarme mirando el techo.
Gracias por el halago 😀

Thanks! This idea has been walking in my head for a while. It's just time to give it life.
I used to be a sleepwalker, and in some ways it has played an important important in the concept. I'm so glad you got it 😊

It's definetely interesting Alejandra! We all have people in our mind. Some are good to keep, some are like the tenants who stay for free although rent is due. Sometimes we need to clear up the space for the right people

That's a wonderful perception. Sometimes it's hard to say goodbye to certain people.
Thanks for your comment.
