“The ground beneath my feet is nothing but an enormous unfolded newspaper. Sometimes a photograph comes by; it is a nondescript curiosity, and from the flowers there uniformly rises the smell, the good smell, of printers’ ink”. - André Breton The spectator interests me as the protagonist of a utopian walkthrough, where the visitor’s own lights and shadows lend an endless series of possible interpretations to my installations. The poetics of the images I choose, the use of traditional drawing and monoprint techniques on different media, have been a constant fixture in my work, together with the records kept during the exhibition period, the interactions with public and performers and the changes these exert on the works. The way the light strikes, the transparencies, the movement of the panels, the routes of the different walkthroughs –as well as taking works from other years into the present or drawing on the walls of the exhibition hall– all transform the meaning initially proposed, revealing other previously invisible landscapes.
