Never Neverland is the result of the self-exposure of moments of intimacy during the transition to adulthood over a period of seven years. Vanessa Roca takes a journey through the sensations of leaving youth in her thirties, the project moves between crisis, search and escape, love and loss.

The exploration of the threshold between youth and adulthood is represented as the crack from which vulnerability, internal conflicts and the longing for stimulating experiences arise. A welcome to a vital transit that lies between innocence and awareness; resistance to monotony and responsibilities; the search for freedom and the weight of social constructs about becoming an adult. Never Neverland exposes this rite of passage as the visual representation of a fictitious limit, enveloped in a painful atmosphere but full of desires. Crossing this limit generates looks of suspicion towards what is leaving and what is to come, but also several questions: What does it mean to be young? What makes you an adult? Is there really anything to say goodbye to in this process?

The title refers to the fictional island of Peter Pan. This is also how the lost generation or Millennial generation has been named, due to the tendency to postpone the milestones of adulthood more than previous generations. This circumstance generates a footprint that has marked an entire generation, walking in constant search and creation of new references.
