Water Washing Through Bones / Encuentro
Encuentro is a series of hushed, contemplative moments that reflect the existence of Eduardo Zamora (78), one of the last remaining inhabitants of a dying mountain town in Cuba. A lone moon burns in a black sky and the silence is laced with flowing water; Eduardo’s world appears eternal and hypnotic but for his shaking hands, which hint at his fragility in the face of time. Inspired by Jorge Luis Borges’ musings on mirrors in The Aleph (1949), Encuentro is a portrait of both solitude and the search to see oneself reflected in another.
