Identity Urbanization and Memory






In Coya, a little town close tu Cuzco-Peru people live at the edge of the mountains but not on top of it. A large group of people go to the streets dancing ancestral dances that revive the characters from the conquest , resistance , and the mix of races and cultures.
Everyone together honoring the glory of the mountains. Times and cultures come the blend of their ancestral heritage and their contemporary life is all there in their IDENTITY that disguises and wears mask to come out.

Exploration of Nature on our Urban habitat


Finding chamomille tea herbs packed in transparent pouches made me connect with nature and the memory of my grandmother who used to drink chamomille tea from the plant on our garden in Lima-Peru.
Your senses record memories that you don't know till something triggers them.
Internal emotional spaces are connected to the real experience of every day life.
