Parida por el mar(es)

Traumas are sometimes impossible to reconstruct completely; our body, as a defense mechanism, erases them, leaving traces in the unconscious. Jeana guides us on a journey through childhood, in her words 'the biggest wound we all carry inside'. From a performance of her own life, she tells us about the characters that once inhabited it, among choppy and superimposed images, which repeat, move forward or backward, illustrating the complexity of memory when faced with the unnamable. Indelible trace on the way to a future in which fashion and humanity are reinvented.
