Hibridos sin Lineaje
23 min.
What are we other than small moments captured in our memories,
fragments of words heard, snapshots of places we have witnessed,
people we have once been close to? Hibridos sin Lineaje is an
experiment in representing that which refuses to be captured,
catalogued, identified. It’s a journey, a collection of moments,
words, sounds, colors, melodies… a falling into the rabbit’s hole.
