Monocanal, Video Full HD, Color, So.
Ens endinsem en la pantalla de l’ordinador per descobrir diferents escenes virtuals, principalment ambientades en un metavers (Second Life), mentre escoltem dos veus en off que ens expliquen com afronten el malestar de diferents maneres. A través d’aquests testimonis, es crea un paral·lelisme entre la realitat virtual i la meditació (i altres pràctiques espirituals) com a formes de traslladar-se a una altra dimensió i fer front a problemes, preocupacions i inquietuds, i projectar el que no aconseguim a la vida real. Els protagonistes es representen a través d’avatars, que es mouen i habiten aquests escenaris virtuals. Una tercera veu ens guia en la meditació per embarcar-nos en aquest viatge virtual.

Her work has been recognized with the BBVA Video Art Creation Multiverse Scholarship, and has been recipient off aid from both the Ministry of Culture and Sports and the Community of Madrid.
