Presentation on the photographic series

Transiently
Navigating identities: is there a relationship between Diaspora’s homeland and new land? How do diasporas express their sense of belonging in multiple societies?
7 million people have migrated from Venezuela due to the humanitarian crisis. Some studies reveal that almost 1 million Venezuelan migrants are LGBTIQ+ people. We know that migration is a complex political and human circumstance, but there is more difficulty when the migrant condition is connected to situations of identity, gender and diverse sex. In the series Transiently, through the story of Aurora (19) trans woman, we explore the relationship that exists between the country of origin and the host country as the possibility of continuing to rewrite personal history with dignity. For that reason we migrate from hostile contexts where fundamental human rights vanish. So too do personal memories and bonds fade. Although LGBTIQ+ people resist in a limbo that connects their past in Venezuela with a present that becomes a promise of freedom. In this process the diverse body becomes the only permanent place.
