Kings of Leon has always been present in my creative life. I listened to their albums over and over again while working, early in my advertising life. They used to tell stories, share emotions and create anguish.
And even years after that girl who had barely discovered her creative powers, the band's bittersweet nostalgia still follows me. In 2021 they released their latest album, “When you see yourself”, an album that was supposed to be released in March 2020. Guess what? Ha. 
Anguishes, anxieties and frustrations in the face of postponed plans. Sounds familiar. Re-signification of the finished work, appreciated by distance. Some weirdness and a shitload of doubts.

“How long will we be stuck in this long waiting that is divided between days dragged by the speed of light and others that fly anchored to the hard and heavy stone of reality?” 

I decided to break this incessant cycle of creative fatigue and give a new meaning to this work that was stopped for a year, from the band that always creatively inspired me. And consequently to re-signify my form of creation, expression and, above all, connection. Getting involved in this project made me understand that time is relative, impalpable and unique. I managed to see all the faces that time has. That my time is not yours. And each one of you is not the same as the rest of us all.

From my perspective of when I see myself, and my perception of what time means to me when listening to this album.
When you see yourself, Kings of Leon - 2021.
