Días Ajenos/Foreign Days by Diego De la Vega

"There is a void in my metaphysical air that no one will touch" –Cesar Vallejo

During the forced pandemic isolation, my weaknesses and fears showed themselves with many faces. Putting myself in doubt and dissolving countless times the autonomy and functionality of the human being in everyday life.

Most of these images obey, on the one hand, the human drive to find and decipher what I had to experience and, on the other hand, the perception and understanding that delve into the various cultural dynamics at play.

Dias Ajenos, is a mental log that evokes, with a certain lightness, reflections and dreams, these loaded with inaccurate meanings and revelations, which seem to end up being diluted with the very crackles of dream consciousness.

The expressive technical process was carried out with video screenshots that I made unconsciously, almost by inertia, during and days after the pandemic in Lima, Peru.
