Escondida (Hidden)
by Adolfo Córdova, Amanda Mijango
Description
A poem and two lyrical voices intertwine in this book that invites the reader to get closer to the secret life of a girl who, with her voice, tells us about the complexity and richness of her inner world. A world that although it is not visible to the adult, has grown within her. On the other hand, there is the voice of the adult, who approaches and distances the girl, recognizing that inner world and its uniqueness. This poem written by Adolfo Córdova is extremely delicate and finds its counterpart in the work of Amanda Mijangos, who with pencil, oil monotype on paper, watercolour, and digital work, shows us that inner world with visual metaphors. The book contains a wonderful surprise: it is an accordion book (with a hardback spine) that allows the two voices and images of nature to be traversed. A book that talks about the intimate life of childhood and the relationship between this and adulthood.
