Accumulation is an invitation to reflect on the excesses of modern life.

Modernity has brought an overload of tasks and information. The one who manages to perform multiple roles simultaneously—the multitasker—is praised and valued as a symbol of productivity and efficiency.

For us women, this ideal of multifunctionality is imposed from an early age. We are taught to occupy a wide range of roles: mother, wife, professional, daughter, caregiver, household manager, among many others. These roles accumulate and overlap, creating an exhausting and overloaded routine. We live surrounded by endless to-do lists, without pause and without full presence.

In creating the works that make up this project, I explored the repetition of gestures and the excess of elements as a way to materialize the accumulation and overload of tasks. The reiteration of patterns and minimal variation in color were also used to emphasize a sense of automatism, as if life were unfolding without breath.
