<<< La Floresta (The Forest). Installation, 2020






From the action of drawing in space, I generate an installation with wires, small objects and remains. The line becomes a plot and the color thick black, fertile land, uncertain night, shadow. I build a small vegetable microcosm that in the strange and delayed time of quarantine is populated and loaded with contingencies and leisurely desires. The wire with its tension and ductility becomes a symbol of the constant flow of the plant sap.
