Looking for My Daughters
We are living ina time of particular uncertainty and transition and this affects our lives and our relationship with younger generations. Ever since they started becoming independent, I have tried to re-establish a relationship with my daughters, and this desire has been projected on young women I met at the time of Brexit and Climate Change protests, along the Regent’s Canal in London. I began to imagine what the changes they will inevitably face in their lives will mean. Water and canals are metaphors for life, as well as objects and signs found along my route. Not only will these girls soon become adults, but difficult times await them: climate change, pandemics, sexism, discrimination, political and economic instability and, in Britain, the effect of Brexit.
