Presentation of the photobook desde el principio

The Romanesque portico of the Church of San Martín de Miño de San Esteban hosted on September 3 the presentation of the photobook desde el principio edited and designed by Gema Pastor Andrés, Diana Fernández Romero and Rocío Bueno (Colectivo Noctiluca). It was the result of the workshop Reencuadre. Images and poems on care, an artistic research project that proposes collective reflection on care using photography and poems written by women held a year earlier. About 50 people gathered at the end of the summer and shared the story of a collaborative project that puts women’s care at the center. In different voices, we recalled the germ of the workshop (the State Pact against gender violence), the thematic and formal inspiration (care, reframing, circles…), the ins and outs of its development (the not always easy compilation of the photos), and, with much emotion, what the meeting with others brought, knowing each other, telling each other, finding each other, taking care of each other… from the beginning it was made known, browsed and reencountered with the physical and human environment where it was conceived.
