Madrid, 2024

Black and white tie undergo a process of bleaching, symbolizing how illness drains color from life, erodes the spirit, and constrains the sense of freedom. In the midst of this fading, relationships often grow stronger. The scars carry a timeless beauty, one that feels almost ethereal, transcending the physical and touching something deeper, more enduring and more beautiful than ever.

The bond between father and daughter is reflected in the delicate stitching of thin black threads. Together, they find strength in unity—because together is always better and more beautiful than ever.

This is the final stage: healing.
The healing process may last a lifetime, shifting with seasons and taking on different forms and expressions. Yet, it always brings beauty. Beneath the repaired scars and cracks, a renewed soul emerges, shining with strength and grace.

The scars themselves hold a quiet elegance, and that soul—transformed and resilient—is more beautiful than ever.
