HOLA MI AMOL

Karla Hiraldo Voleau – HOLA MI AMOL

As long as I can remember there has been a running joke in my family: one should never date a Dominican.  My interactions with Dominican men have been anyway always limited, since I was treated as an outsider, as a tourist on the island. Eventually, family prohibitions and prejudices only pushed me to gain my own insight into the Dominican culture. Engaging into a performative process, I went on to pursue an immersive investigation as a tourist that travels in search for love. www.khiraldovoleau.com
