Looking For My Daughters

Description:
Ever since they started becoming independent, I have tried to re-establish a relationship with my daughters, and this desire has been projected on young women I met along the Regent’s Canal in London. I began to imagine what all the changes they will inevitably face in their lives will mean. Water and canals are metaphors for life, as well as objects and signs found along my route. We live in a particular era of uncertainty and transition. Not only will these girls soon become adults, but difficult times await them: climate change, pandemics, sexism, discrimination, political and economic instability.
