Made in Latin America – Season 2, Episode 6: “Fragmento de un diario de viaje por la costa” – Giovanna Rivero, Bolivia
In Episode 6 of Made in Latin America Season 2, Bolivian novelist Giovanna Rivero shares an intimate fragment from her coastal travel journal—a written trace
In Episode 6 of Made in Latin America Season 2, Bolivian novelist Giovanna Rivero shares an intimate fragment from her coastal travel journal—a written trace of people, place, and memory woven into a loop with an object kept in the museum collection.
In her lyrical storytelling, Giovanna layers moments of solitude, natural rhythms, and found objects—driftwood, shells, salt—to explore how these coastal fragments echo ancestral ties and overlooked ecologies. That sense of wandering, noticing, and remembering becomes a way to reclaim smaller, softer memories often lost in grand archival narratives.
🧭 Our Role
Working with the SDCELAR team, we crafted a seamless production flow spanning continents. Giovanna recorded remotely from Bolivia, and our studio in London provided real-time audio direction to capture her voice’s nuance and warmth.
🧠 Why It Matters
This episode continues the Volver a contar series by celebrating subjective archive-making—everyday stories that live in pocket notebooks and sensory moments. Giovanna’s travel fragments remind us that memory isn’t always big; sometimes it lives in the quiet hush of a seashell or a single page of observation.
