We had the pleasure of producing the audiovisual that accompanies Colección Inicia's annual book publication "Retrato de Mujer", commissioned by Pardo Agency.
Retrato de Mujer is an initiative by Colección Inicia that represents a contribution to the cultural legacy of the Dominican Republic, highlighting the role and contributions of women artists in the history of national art.
This project fosters intergenerational dialogue within our artistic production and creates a valuable documentary archive that will serve as a resource for future research and for the dissemination of our creative heritage.
