During her residency at Casa Cuna La Paz, the artist proposed a process of accompaniment with the caregivers, focusing on old age as a natural process that is, at the same time, laden with social and cultural tensions. Her research revisited the project Pedimento, inspired by a popular ritual in Oaxaca in which people mold clay figures as an offering to the Virgin, making a wish. These pieces are placed outdoors and, as they dissolve with the rain, transmit the intentions of those who created them to the earth.

On this occasion, clay became a medium to explore desires, fears, and reflections surrounding aging, a theme deeply connected to the experience of women caregivers. The artist revisited the experience previously developed at the Venice Biennale, where she invited the public to sculpt clay figures associated with old age, especially in relation to women serving life sentences, thus making visible the violence involved in aging under conditions of confinement and vulnerability.

The work with the caregivers opened an intimate and collective space to recognize old age not only as an inevitable destiny, but as a process that deserves to be accompanied with dignity, tenderness, and community. Through the clay, the participants were able to connect with their own memories and desires, creating a bridge between the personal and the collective. This symbolic and sensitive gesture sought to reframe old age as a stage of life that, far from being rendered invisible, can open up new forms of recognition and care.
