A project by Luisa Dörr, this exhibition features the traditional Bolivian skirts, commonly associated with indigenous women from the highlands. For decades, these skirts symbolized uniqueness and were often objects of discrimination. Now, a new generation of skaters in Cochabamba wears them as a symbol of resistance. 'Imilla' means 'girl' in Aymara and Quechua, the two most spoken languages in Bolivia, where more than half of the population has indigenous roots. The nine women currently part of the ImillaSkate group only wear skirts while skating. Knee-length and paired with sneakers, these skirts symbolize the decision to embrace their culture. Through this practice, they convey a message of inclusion and acceptance of diversity. Location: Espai Golfes. This exhibition is made possible through a collaboration between the International Photography Festival Association (IPFA) and the Biennale della Fotografia Femminile of Mantova (Italy).
