The Swimming Pool, By Carmen Dusmet Carrasco
The work emerges after a 2-year, domestic-ethnographic research. In an attempt to find proof of what it means to practice care, Carmen develops an obsession to observe and capture her mother’s journey towards a precarious retirement. What began as a socio-economic study of female poverty in Spain, led to an intimate negotiation of a mother-daughter relationship. The work unapologetically submerges the viewer on a raw, personal journey about the cyclic aspect of life and the desperate qualities of love.
