RITUAL SIGNS OF (RE)CONNECTION
This project began during the COVID-19 lockdown in Mexico. At the start of the confinement, I didn’t know when I would be able to take photos again or see my friends. I had never used FaceTime or Zoom before, and WhatsApp had always been strictly for messaging. So, as a way to connect—or reconnect—with my friends, I began reaching out to see what they were up to. Since I usually have a camera with me, I decided to take portraits of them.
It started with remote photo sessions of friends and family. Later, I expanded the project to include people I had never met in person.
Video call apps are meant to bring us closer, but they often leave us with fleeting, pixelated, frozen, and glitchy visuals—reminders of the friends and family we were temporarily separated from.
These are the moments I chose to transform into images. Some of them repeat endlessly, as a way to preserve the memories I want to hold on to—until we meet again.
