MOON

Lanzarote (Spain), 2024

Moon is a series that inhabits the threshold between the real and the dreamed a suspended space where body and landscape intertwine to shape an emotional geography. Composed of two images Sleeping on the Moon and Moon the series traces an intimate journey through inner territories, made visible in volcanic, almost extraterrestrial landscapes, where time seems to pause and imagination takes form.

The figure who sleeps and then walks is not only the artist, but also an archetypal presence: the dreamer, the one who longs, the one who awakens and transforms the world through their gaze. In Sleeping on the Moon, the body rests on rough terrain as if lying at the very heart of desire. In Luna, that same body moves forward, carrying with it the echo of the dream still pulsing beneath the surface.

This series is a visual meditation on the passage from longing to lived experience, from the inner world to embodied gesture. The Moon, here, is not an astronomical location but a symbolic territory a reflection of what is yearned for so deeply that it begins to exist. It is also a metaphor for a love that arrives, unexpected and long dreamed, altering the texture of reality.

In Moon, the artist invites us to walk alongside her through this liminal space, where the fantastic does not oppose the real, but flows through it. And in that crossing, the inhospitable becomes home, and the impossible, revelation.
