GOSPEL ESTUDIOS — Verse TRES: El Encuentro

Verse TRES: El Encuentro

Life flows in pairs: two hands, two lungs, two eyes. What remains on either side of the mask coexists in balance.

The clothes we choose are both a bridge and a barrier between two realities; we wear them to be seen and also to see ourselves. In this in-between space, we decide who we are.

To explore this concept, we collaborated with photographer Alexandra Cepeda to present our VERSE TRES with a visual story about duality, told in three acts.

Two figures, Natalia and Mansur; two garments, JALOQUE and BASAJAUN; and two colours, PANTANO and SOMBRA. They start apart, each holding their own space. Then they move closer, interacting, playing, and discovering each other. In the final act, they come together, embracing all that comes with the encuentro.

Avanzando hacia los demás se crean nuevos reflejos. Se extiende nuestra presencia. En la intimidad del espacio compartido moldeamos el silencio.
