An illustrator writes letters from Cantabria to her son. In this story we see how the tale revolves around the “waves” that a woman goes through to reconcile her professional role and her position as a mother in the face of adverse circumstances.
In each letter, the illustrator describes in detail the landscapes of Cantabria, from the green mountains to the beaches bathed by the Cantabrian Sea.
The waves of the sea become a constant metaphor of her life, reflecting both the moments of calm and those of storm.
She tells how, on some days, the waves are gentle and calm, allowing her to move forward in her artistic projects with fluidity.
On others, however, the storms seem endless, with challenges that make her question her decisions and abilities.
Despite everything, in each line of her letters we feel the deep connection and love she has for her son, and how this love drives her to continue forward.
The letters also reveal small daily victories, such as the satisfaction of seeing a finished work or the joy of a moment shared with her son.
Through her words, we can see a woman who, despite the difficulties, finds strength in her passions and in the unbreakable bond with her son.
Thus, the story becomes not only a testimony of the illustrator’s personal struggle, but also a celebration of resilience and the human capacity to find beauty and hope in the midst of adversity.
