Gaba
From Córdoba, Gaba commented that the pandemic allowed many trans people to find themselves and go through introspective processes that led them to, finally, be able to transition and/or have resolutions regarding their body and identity; processes that are directly reflected in the musical projects of these artists. “When we were finally able to leave isolation,” Gaba recalled, “it was time to take out everything I processed inside my chrysalis. Now I had to go out into a scene. “I wanted to go to the party, but also do it myself.”
