Mar García Puig (Spain) and Mariana Matija (Colombia) advocate for a reconnection with fundamental aspects of our existence, from different perspectives. In her book, Això tan tenebrós, García Puig presents an argument in favour of the complexity of metaphors and the darkness, as against the prevailing literalness and desire for purity; in her work of non-fiction Niñapájaroglaciar, Matija looks to a more aware and harmonious relationship with nature.
