Last walk in Eden

A retrospective trip, 'Last walk in Eden' explores a mother-daughter relationship, life cycles and photographic observation. In 2012, an outing in a new Peugeot 208 served as an excuse for a symbolic journey through the Pampas region that would take mother and daughter to the banks of La Plata River to reach the natural reserve at La Estancia de Pearson. Here, the mother was transported to her own vision of Eden, marked by exuberant vegetation, the powerful river, and the contrast between the deciduous and eternal. The discovery of the images captured that day led to a turning point, the discernment of an enigma in which the artist deciphers her mother’s last life lesson. As photography mysteriously hides a latent image yet to reveal itself, in this case, a story is yet to be unfolded. "When my mother returned to the river that day—the last of her life—time buckled, making portents and symbols of what had seemed insignificant details. Time tangled, bringing together her beginning, her middle, and her end. Did she go back to La Estancia to say goodbye to herself? I’ll never know. But I can be certain that there she had found her place in the world—and that for me, now, the world had become timeless".
