Description

Arrive EARLY for the Leica loan and bring your ID and a credit card. FIRST COME FIRST SERVE. Bring your own memory card. Sponsored by Leica Women Foto Project and Leica USA. In these two hours of photographic walk, Ximena proposes to slow down minds and steps. Focusing on breathing, we sharpen our senses by merging with the environment. Throughout a profound observation, we will organically discover situations, gestures and details hidden until now.
