Part 2: Lejania

Part 2: Lejanía — June 2025 at the 100° Diaspora, Berliner Festspiele.

Today I went for a walk and I began to sing

“Ay, me da, qué tristeza que me da, me da la lejanía.
Qué tristeza que me da, estar tan lejos de la tierra mía.”

This work carries the voices of those who generously shared their stories with me during my field research on borderland identities — your words shaped the heartbeat of the final sound mix, and I am deeply grateful.
