The female skaters of ImillaSkate, Bolivia’s female skating collective. “Imilla” is an Aymara and Quechua word that means girls. The collective is a cultural reference and fusion between urban and Chola Cochabambina. Their goal, besides popularizing skateboarding in Bolivia and empower girls, is to make a call to the whole society to reconcile cultural differences and centuries-old women stereotypes.

My mum has to drive over the Millau viaduct every time she visits me, and the other day I was in the car with her and said we should stop to take a picture, and she said, Must we. And I said, Come on! it’s the tallest bridge in the world. And she just wouldn’t believe me. It’s too familiar to be special… She was like, surely the tallest bridge in the world would be somewhere else. Not between my house and yours.

SAVING FACE (2004) dir. Alice Wu

Four years ago I woke up at 5 am from distant explosions. I asked my boyfriend if he heard them too, he said he didn’t and I should go back to sleep. I tried to calm myself down, went on the internet, it was silent, no news or explanations. I told myself that those were just some weird street noises. Half an hour later I woke up again from the same noses, but louder. This time, there were news: russia launched a full scale invasion. In these 4 years I’ve felt layers of fear, hatred and sorrow I never thought were possible. The war completely changed my perception of the world and justice, it forced me to reevaluate everything in my life and everything I believed in. I’m not very good with words, so today I’ll be sharing some of my very personal artworks exploring some of the complicated feelings and experiences I had over the past 4 years. The war still goes on, in fact it has been going on since 2014 not 2022. russians still kill, rape, torture Ukrainian people, destroy our cities and do everything in their power to erase our nation from this world. Today I would like to ask you to donate to Ukraine and share info about this war. All the links can be found here. Thank you Слава Україні!
