Al sol, lejos del centro

Towards the Sun, Far from the Center
Santiago in the shimmering heat of summer. High-resolution images undergo a digital zoom process which transforms spaces into surfaces and houses into textures. In between, there are the small gestures of everyday urban life. And two women who are searching for a place for their love.
