Artist books
“Nearly one year after intimacies, I watched the lines I had put on paper to catch some of the dancers’ gravity through my hand. I decided to re-interpret them by submitting that gravity to ink and canvas.
Canvas ceased to be a support as I started to partially unweave its threads to compose a reflected body. The unwoven bodies were then showing me what is before form: blankness. I was seeking a way to restore them to movement, to multiplicity, so I made a book. A book is an intimate object.
One and multiple, as it unfolds, page by page… until the end.” (See intimacies | video art)

Cada ejemplar es único, páginas originales de tela

La elección del libro como otro formato tiene el propósito de subrayar que la vida es movimiento, que Uno/a es plural y que la existencia es coexistencia en la medida en que nuestros encuentros participan de nuestra constitución como individuos. El libro es íntimo, Uno y múltiple: se va revelando a medida que vamos girando las páginas que lo componen… hasta el final.
