ALIEN LOVE

November 18, 2023 2023 by MariaLuisa Bernal

Colombia, my home, is generally characterized by a conservative culture where discussions about queerness remain a societal taboo. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I felt compelled to contribute positively to this discourse. With this in mind, I created an ebook tailored for children to impart the invaluable lesson that love transcends labels. Love is a potent force of creation and empowerment, a sentiment everyone should freely embrace. Enclosed in this illustration is the central character of my ebook and the celestial world it inhabits, ingeniously shaped in the likeness of Colombia's political map. Through this artistic expression, I aspire to promote inclusivity and acceptance, fostering a narrative encouraging children to understand that love knows no boundaries and that everyone deserves the freedom to experience its profound and transformative energy.
