Vera es vegetariana, esta´ terminando Filologi´a Cla´sica y le fascinan los animales. Se siente mujer desde la infancia, pero hasta los 18 años no se lo confeso´ a su familia. Desde entonces, dejo´ de llamarse Bernardo y ese niño desaparecio´ de su vida. Es activista y se siente orgullosa de su cuerpo. No tiene intencio´n de someterse a ninguna cirugi´a. Defiende que la identidad sexual esta´ en la cabeza de cada persona y que la reasignacio´n genital es una decisio´n personal e individual.
Victoria alterna trabajos temporales como camarera. Es un torrente de vitalidad y adora que su pareja le sorprenda y le robe besos cuando menos lo espera.
Vera y Victoria son dos jo´venes de 26 y 22 años que tienen sueños, anhelos, miedos e ilusiones. El proyecto comenzo´ en 2012 como un diario visual y, tras cada encuentro con ellas, una nueva pa´gina se escribe. Se trata de un retrato i´ntimo de esta joven pareja y de la riqueza de su relacio´n.
VERA Y VICTORIA
Vera y Victoria are two young people who met over two years ago and fell in love. They share dreams of a life together and ignore the prejudice of others. They are simply two women who love each other, who complement, attract and understand each other. While they travel down the same path together, each keeps her own space.
Vera is vegetarian; she is finishing her studies in classical philology and is fascinated by animals. Vera has felt like a woman since her childhood, but she did not admit it to her family until she was eighteen. Since then, she has stopped calling herself Bernardo, and that boy vanished from her life. She is passionate about her causes and is proud of her body. She has no intention of undergoing surgery. She defends the idea that sexual identity is in the mind of each person and that gender reassignment surgery is a personal decision for the individual.
Victoria holds down different temporary jobs as a waitress. She is a whirlwind of vitality and loves it when her partner surprises her with kisses when she least expects it.
Vera and Victoria are two young people aged twenty-six and twenty-two who have dreams, longings, fears and hopes. The project began in 2012 as a visual diary, and a page is written after each encounter with them. It is an intimate account of this young couple and the richness of their relationship.
