Heimat, as well as Schorle are familiar words in german,
yet hard to translate into spanish. Heimat, roughly translated as homeland,
a profound word filled with longing, and the twinkle-toed Schorle (spritzer) are combined to a metaphorical term, a concept to deal with the identity as an mexican artist in Berlin.
To attentuate Heimat, the location where you are and at the same time a non-space, with a spritzer of Schorle might serve as a way to reflect cultural identity in an artistic way.
