EmBryoN

EmBryoN, The Seed of a Dystopian Novel By Cristina Redondo Sometimes a story isn’t born — it is gestated. For years, amid readings of Ursula K. Le Guin, the neon lights of Blade Runner and the sands of Dune, I began to hear the voice of a soldier lost in a future still without a name. That character — and what he compelled me to see in the world — slowly seeped into ...

Equinox

I’ve just finished writing a new novel. It’s very different from Clandestina, my first published book, but it has been a truly transformative experience. As I was writing it, I felt something deep within me shift into alignment, as though I were living through an inner equinox. The creative process was cathartic. I immersed myself in the pain of the characters, in their everyday lives, and in doing so, something within me ...

Life’s fleeting nature teaches us to treasure the present—the laughter of family, ...

Henri Cartier-Bresson

I never thought I would enjoy sharing a coffee with Henri Cartier-Bresson, perhaps because until now I hadn’t had the opportunity to closely examine part of his work. That was precisely the feeling I had after leaving the exhibition organised by the Mapfre Foundation in commemoration of the 20th anniversary of his death. Henri Cartier-Bresson was one of the most important photographers of the 20th century, not only for being ...

It’s raining

The text reflects on the nature of change, symbolized by the rain. While it may seem like the same rain, it’s not. Time has been shifting in subtle ways, and change often comes unexpectedly. The rain represents the essence of change: it falls with intensity, bringing renewal and freedom. It is in the rain that the author finds their true self, embracing the freedom and movement it symbolizes. The text ...

Like Artemis

Working Women's Day and I think of Artemis, the Greek Goddess of the Hunt, who coincidentally went hunting with her bow and arrow, which Zeus gave her, but also with six dogs that Pan gave her. Curious that they were men, and only the men, those who provided the weapons to work. I also think of the story of Cinderella, that they only wanted her to work at home removing dirt ...
