Lauren Maganete hypnotizes by every moment it shares with the objective that continuously monitor her, a gift of building an identity and interiority that communicates with us with impunity and transversely in temperament that does not cease to transgress ... loving.

This passion what is contagious, tells us about herself and her ongoing journey ... because she's staying ... but in continuous movement. Where? Maybe we cannot get the answer, because fulfill us with comparison of adverbs made of images. Moments or flash moments that instigates us to speak to you to ask you... to ask ourselves...

Her photo is the simplicity of the whole, the set, the route on a daily basis that does not end. The commitment to the steps that constantly bump with its flashes - flash fired while a photograph is taken, to illuminate the photographed object (in Priberam Dictionary of the Portuguese Language) - Singing memories that fertilize the soul in the womb of life.

Later...The Key? I leave the words of Susan Sontag: "Fear of what people will think - not the natural temperament - makes most women dependent on being desired before they can desire." Susan Sontag in Reborn
