When they ask me: How did you survive the pandemic, I will answer them: I photographed it. I broke free from my own mental lockdown.
In the photos I found the freedom that they were taking from me.
In the silence, all the answers i need to continue.
These have been photos taken in Havana during the last months of social isolation, fear and uncertainty.
Cuando me pregunten: Cómo sobreviviste a la pandemia, les contestaré: La fotografié. Me liberé de mi propio encierro mental.
En las fotos encontré la libertad que me estaban arrebatando.
En el silencio, todas las respuestas que necesitaba para continuar.
Estas han sido fotos tomadas en La Habana durante los últimos meses de aislamiento social, miedo e incertidumbre.
My name is Laura Ramos. I'm currently based in la Habana, Cuba but I've lived in Spain, Colombia and Mexico working as an actress. I'm obsessed with photography and experiencing new cultures. My dream is to keep sharing how I connect with the places I live in and the people in them.
