24-04-2026 Being out of the usual rhythm for a bit allows me to really get to what I need to get to. We turn any airbnb, any Abuela’s room, into a sacred container here. We retrieve and think and write and dream and discuss and make love in all the many ways. Things clear up.

I share with you, now, a picture that shows what I have been up to for more than a year without sharing any. That was necessary for so many reasons. Now I can -and need to- finally open up. As a child I would draw and paint and always knew, I’ll become an artist. Then the world tells you, you can’t, you start believing so, and someday, when both the repressing and supportive voices die, you end up finally hearing your own again. I woke up seeing I had devoted a decade to a craft, which was a childhood dream, which contained so many blessings but still was in some way not the full facing of what I had to face. I decided to drop the knives and devote myself to finally finding what I could not find in objects of usage, I started to apply what I had learned over the years in contexts which were much more personal and therefore had to be quiet for a while. I still feel like I need to stay on the reserved end for a bit, as I learned to not release unripe fruit. This plum was sugary though and here it is for you to eat. For those understanding, it goes to show from which tree it came.
I’ll soon be able to show the beautiful trunk, bare with me please.
