“Arraigos, islas con memoria” is an installation project that will be showcased in Madrid in October 2023. It is a project about the immigration process of 3 Peruvian women artists living in Spain. My starting point towards the installation, is Legado, a generative art piece I created in 2022 where I explored the legacy of the women in my family and how I integrate it in my present life to take care of myself. Based on this, I am in an exploration process where I delve into my own history, my origins to recognize how I nurture myself in the present in another country. “Arraigos, estudios 1” is born out of this process. As I begin to acknowledge that all possible routes in life are part of a whole. That all lines converge. That each path and each decision I make brings me closer to home, I feel safe and cared.
I plan (hopefully) to share more of these explorations that take a generative art form in the next months. “Arraigos, islas con memoria” is developed thanks to the support of the program Ayudas a la creación y la movilidad del Ayuntamiento de Madrid.
