In one of the few, or perhaps in the only, skatepark in the city, those young people who try to follow their alternative paths gather. This photo shows one of these boys who, with this jump, frees himself from the rigid structures, symbolized by the multiple railings that surround him and the shadows that stand out on his "pre-established path". The impression I had when taking this photograph is of how great the need is for young people to find their space and to affirm their individuality by breaking away from the canons of society perceived as too limiting.
