Quien pierde la memoria de su ra\u00edz pierde su eje y con \u00e9l la capacidad de ser protagonista de su vida. Durante miles de a\u00f1os la mujer ha vivido bajo la misma mano patriarcal que ha escrito la historia y los mandamientos cotidianos. Atrapada en la celos\u00eda de su propia familia, sociedad o credo, la mujer ha llegado a considerarse a si misma ciudadano de segunda. <\/p>\n

Escondida en una c\u00e1rcel de roles la mujer ha perdido su poder social, su autoestima, la capacidad de decidir sobre su propia vida o sobre el mundo en el que est\u00e1. Sin embargo, la vida depende de ella: Es la madre, es la reproductora de las semillas que se cultivan y es la responsable de la administraci\u00f3n del hogar, entre otras muchas cosas. Y lo es desde que nuestra especie naci\u00f3, a\u00fan m\u00e1s desde que se volvi\u00f3 sedentaria.<\/p>\n

Whoever loses the memory of his roots, loses focus and with it the ability to remain the actor of his own life. For thousands of years women have lived under the patriarchal authority and its daily commandments. Caught in the lattice of her own family, society or creed, women lowered their self-esteem and undermined their power to decide over their own life or the world around them, leading them to even consider themselves as second class citizens.
\nTrapped in a prison of roles, women have come to reduce their social power, self-esteem, the ability of decision over their own life or over the world they live in. However, life depends on them: they are the Mother, the hand that plants the seeds, in charge of the household management, among many other things \u2013 since our species is born, and even more since we became sedentary.
\nDuring five years Jordi Oliver has traveled the world photographing these women, in Africa, India, Romania, Tahiti\u2026 This project is a tribute to women and their daily struggle for their rights<\/p>\n
