In November 2019, Marianne Marić is invited to the Valparaiso photography festival. When she arrives there, Chile has just fallen into chaos and riots are firing up around the country. Tear gas, gunshots and fires follow one another in an end-of-the-world atmosphere. It is in this context that Marianne Marić and some young women met on the spot during an evening marked by curfew to improvise a strange cathartic ritual on the roof of a building in Santiago. Masked, as a sign of distrust, protection and play, they released the fear and tension accumulated during days of riots and delivered themselves in front of the photographer. These 24 prints reflect the intensity of that night crossed with the motionless smile of the masks, the silent presence of plants and the throbbing bodies of the dancing girls.

2019年11月，Marianne Marić受邀参加瓦尔帕莱索摄影节。当她到达那里时，智利刚刚陷入混乱，全国各地都在爆发骚乱。在世界末日的气氛中，催泪瓦斯、枪声和交火一个接一个。在这种背景下，Marianne Marić和一些年轻女性在圣地亚哥一个宵禁的晚上相遇，在一座建筑的屋顶上即兴进行了一场奇怪的宣泄仪式。戴着面具，作为不信任、保护和玩耍的象征，他们释放了几天骚乱期间积聚的恐惧和紧张，在摄影师面前展示自己。这24幅照片映射了那个夜晚的强烈氛围，与此同时，面具上一动不动的微笑、植物的无声存在和跳舞的女孩们扭动的身体交织在一起。
