The Colombian textile artist Carolina Salom invites us to return to our origins. Her textile work is deeply connected to nature, inspired by the landscapes of her childhood in Colombia, where the mountains transform into rivers and plains. Through materials like wool, which represents a symbiosis between humans and sheep, Salom explores healing and the slow rhythm of artisanal weaving. In her creative process, nature and natural dyes are essential, and her art seeks to dignify the work of artisans, blending the functional with the aesthetic and the ancestral with the contemporary.

The Argentine dancer and choreographer Teresa Marcaida shares how dance has been her form of expression since childhood. A graduate of the Juilliard School in New York, she has been influenced by choreographers like Jiří Kylián and the Graham technique. Deeply marked by Pina Bausch, who selected her to perform one of her solos at the Biennale di Venezia, she also counts Jacopo Godani as a major mentor who expanded her creative boundaries in movement.
On a personal level, her mother has been a pillar in her career, and her unique bond with her sister Juana, who inspires her as they communicate through movement without need for words. Teresa Marcaida blends emotion and theatricality in her choreography, seeking to move the audience and create deep connections through dance, an art form that she sees as a means of communication and healing.
