GIVE ME SUGAR

Through analog photography, Gabriela documents Miami and her experience of adapting to a new environment, focusing on the Little Haiti neighborhood, where she has lived and worked for the past five years.

She reveals landscapes shaped by the city’s “copy-paste aesthetics” and its enigmatic characters. Her work reflects a process of cultural assimilation and the navigation of new social codes. It exposes the visual poetry that emerges from the tension between intimacy and spectacle, marginality and luxury. Gabriela creates a space where discomfort is welcomed — a space where humor, rawness, and tenderness coexist.
