Menos Pausa ( 2019 – )

Menos Pausa is a long term project composed of images where I seek to recognize myself, physically and metaphorically, after 5 years living with menopause. In this process of natural transformation, with physical and psychological ups and downs, the notion of disappearance, both personal and social, has been striking. On the one hand, it is as if what I understood as “identity” was falling apart: I became unaware of certain aspects of my body and my behavior; on the other hand, that same body now seems invisible to the eyes of others.

Menopause unfortunately still carries many taboos resulting from a patriarchal perspective on the female body, marginalizing the mature women in a society that values ​​the consumerist euphoria of eternal youth. I propose with this work to bring the theme to discussion, using my voice - which also represents so many other women.
