"Emotional limbo" by Pablo Zarama
Fire Island: a house, a ruin, a farewell, and a hope
Its red sand, its disproportionate length, makes this a dream place. And there, in that constantly changing nature, a house, an artifice, appears to pay homage to its surroundings. And now, in these months of confinement, said house, said outside world of summer beaches, generates longing and nostalgia at the same time. This is how this image represents said duality, said emotional limbo. In this way, the viewer of the image struggles between feeling hope for the arrival or nostalgia for the farewell. Finally, the house facing the sea reminds us of those sandcastles that we built when we were little. Those castles that evoke the fragility of our artifice, of our race, of our moment, because any night, with the moon as a witness, the sea will rise and erase our castles.
