Photography Eduardo ArnillasThe piece rise from the need to tell. From the talk between each other about the passage of time, the passing of the years. From the fact of not being able to erase out of our minds the question of "what will come next?". We decided to talk about the way we got caught getting started and giving up something over and over again. We concluded that get over one's own issues, is an indispensable condition to create and grow together. And we achieved to create a link between three, very different people. Who got the same situation and status. From which they push themselves into the unknown, towards a quite uncertain future, which develops into the "And now what?".
