Title: MAMITAS

Subtitle: A visual Prayer from Andean women

Blurb:

'Mamitas' is a photographic project that emerges as a prayer from Andean women. 
The archive is a living memory that becomes both a homage and an offering to Mother Earth, honoring 'mamitas' as the living territory. Through portraits, visual fragments and gestures,  the series become a weaving and living body that enhances them as territory. From an intimate place it becomes a prayer- a ritual- that shares motherhood- extended as a natural force that belongs to something communal, spiritual and ancestral. It honors them as the Universal Mother who unconditionally nurtures, cultivates, carries and sustains life on this Earth. The images engage in dialogue with the land and everyday gestures, revealing forms of care that endure beyond time and space. 'Mamitas' is a offering about Motherhood expressed in its many dimensions that deepens and opens a space to witness, connection and recognition.
