Immersed Distances

AND NOW?The referents and the voices of others unleashed a series of imaginaries before starting the journey.I'm not lying to you, what I expected to find has already been colonised, that which is usually called the intangible heritage of humanity.So I arrived and found something else, a Palenque I had never heard of, where my research interests had already been condemned. But I understood the distance, the intimate, the shared as a way of life as a way of being and remaining in the midst of everything and nothingness.It was valid, it was not intentional, it was not their fault, it is not even worth mentioning the culprits, it is worth understanding that I did not find what I had expected, what I had read and seen before arriving; but I found other forms of relationship, of remoteness, of the various distances that surround their routine, their being.
