Director Statement

"I intend to communicate the unusual sensation of new senses."
I needed to satisfy my concerns as a writer and, likewise, to apply my knowledge to materialize them in an audiovisual piece.

There is an exhibitionist point in writing and it is necessary to be emotionally involved in this to reach the viewer.
Of course, there are endless conceptions of art and its expressions but, personally, I understand cinema as an instrument to thrill. I have intended to tell something, to reflect on something.
As a reference I have used non-narrative cinema, which we can call the "poetic" forms of cinema. And that can comparing to letters and postcards make up most of the output in personal space spaces.
