First time I started taking these pictures it was winter, and I was begining
a new job which was a little bit far from home, and I was finishing quite
late. So every time, I was hurrying to take the bus or the tramway.
Hurrying because somehow I knew I wasn’t supposed to be outside by
myself when the sun would go down. But as it is, nobody can stop the
sun to go down, and as it did, I found myself searching for comforting
faces through photography. I didn’t know that at first, until more images
came in, and the more I looked to it, the more I realized, I mostly
searched for female faces, as a way of helping myself feeling more
secure, or feeling that I had the right to be there at that particular hour.
And I’m sure those women searched for me too. Because every time a
woman enters a public space, she would search around to make sure
she’s not alone.
