Paula and Martina, how did you two first meet?
Martina Hache: I already knew Paula ́s work before meeting her in person. We’d also seen each other around at events and concerts in Madrid.
Paula Cendejas: I also already knew Martina through her work—she was on my radar! I admired her sensitivity while creating. A mutual friend introduced us. We met for a coffee to chat and get to know each other better. I quickly realized she was the right person to share my next creative project.
Why do you think your respective artistic approaches work so well together?
PC: When collaborating with someone, photographers in particular, I look closely at how they reflect sensitive situations and issues in front of the camera. Something that caught my attention was that Martina had already worked with other female artists—she helped them with their projects and brought that sensitivity to the screen. As my new project is about my life, this was really important to me. I am exposing myself in a very raw way, so I needed someone delicate and with great taste. Without that the final creative result wouldn’t have been solid enough.
