Culture & Tradition

In 2019, Karla Hiraldo Voleau wrote a letter to herself in the future. She was in Greece, alone, doing a job that required her to wake up early and keep her hands in the soil. She takes a photo of herself every day. It is a period in which she perceives her body in a distorted way, obsessing over certain details: constructing images of herself is a way to overturn that feeling, a shock therapy to stay sane.

 

In 2024, in Italy, Hiraldo Voleau rereads that letter and replies. She writes that no, she does not spend enough time away from her phone, in the sun. No, she has not become a mother and yes, she still worries about how her body looks. A body she does not take care of as much as she should - or as much as she thinks she should - but which allows her to climb 2,500 metres, to run even when she does not want to.

 

You Can Have It All emerges from two moments five years apart, from two complex and intense passages, from break-ups, body dysmorphia, anger and insomnia. Photography transforms them both.
