Siempre me maravillo de pensar en las ciudades,es un tema que me llama mucho la atencion desde que lo estudie en la facultad de arquitectura. Me maravilla como cada ciudad tiene su ritmo, sus costumbres, su cotidianeidad.... siempre pienso en como se arma la "trama" urbana:
la señora que sale a hacer las compras para la comida del mediodia,el señor que sale en su bicicleta a pagar las cuentas al banco,
los niños que caminan para llegar temprano al colegio,
el perro que juega con la pelota...
en fin, miles de momentos y escenas que se viven dia a dia y que son distintas a cada momento.
Porque las ciudades no solo edificios, autos, gente..la ciudades tienen vida adentro, una vida que no se puede ver pero que se siente...como un alma que caracteriza a cada una y que las hace diferentes.
Las fotos de {Twiggs} reflejan el alma de su ciudad y nos cuentan historias de la vida cotidiana, nos hace volar la imaginacion y conocer aunque sin palabras el alma de su ciudad.
Gracias {Twiggs}

It´s so difficult for me to write in english, but I´ll try....
I have always been ashtonished about cities. It's a topic that caught my attention ever since I've studied the subject at architecture school. I usually wonder about how each city has its own rhythm, its own customs, its everyday life .... I always think about the urban scene story:
A lady buying groceries for lunch,
A man riding his bike going to the bank,
kids walking down the street to get to school early,
a dog playing with his ball ...
Thousands of moments and scenes that are lived everyday, and that are different every time. Cities are not just buildings, cars, people .. cities have life inside them, a life that cannot be seen, but that can be sensed ... like a soul that represents each city and makes it different.

Twiggs' photos reflect the soul of her city and tell everyday stories, makes us imagine and lets us know a little more about her city´s soul without any words.
Thanks {Twiggs}
