Presented as a narrative divided into segments, this (work in progress) of the video installation combines visuals and ambient sounds captured from everyday life using a mini DV camera and phones. Texts extracted from the artist’s personal diary complement the imagery, creating a multi-sensory experience. The videos span the years 2003 to 2020, encapsulating a transformative period in Lorena’s life—marked by profound changes such as emigrating to Canada and the passing of Salomé’s father. This installation serves as a fragmented self-portrait, a reconstruction of the artist’s internal daydreams and a journey through her psyche. The space invites active participation, allowing viewers to stroll through and construct their interpretation of the unfolding narrative. Utilizing videos predating the era of social media, the navigation through the space mimics scrolling through someone else’s life, blurring the boundaries between the private and public realms. As we traverse the installation, we find ourselves interwoven into the artist’s world and intimate reflections.
