ROMA is a story like any other, a tale about something that once existed.
When it all started everything was bubbles bursting all over the place, it was huge waves crashing violently against the rocks, it was drunkenness, it was eternal sleep on a bed made out of water. That is when I started taking the photographs, when it was all unstable and it felt like it was going to be forever. I continued when it gained weight, when I started to hold onto my own, my son and his father, out of fear of losing all of it. The air itself felt fragile, so I photographed their bodies, his birth, the beauty of the everyday. I wanted to make this story into a talisman, a prayer card, I wanted it to be something that wouldn't die.
