ODYSSEY - A BODY IN TIME AND SPACE (2024)

“As I stood within these extensive landscapes, under the boundless sky, my perspective was almost the only thing that reminded me of myself. My thoughts wandered, they scattered over the endless landscape, they went as far away from me as they could. How grand, the lived experience, to feel and be able to construct our own narratives. Each and every one of us composing our own perpetual growing blueprint of how we bind ourselves to the world.”

Odyssey is a visual exploration of the interconnectedness of time, space, and self. In the process of gaining a better understanding of this interplay, the components reveal their fluctuating nature. Each element, upon encountering the other, continues to exist within the other as well. By utilizing the photographic medium, I get to manipulate the element of time and alter the perception of space. Through the use of long exposures, time gives form to otherwise invisible traces. My body becomes the mechanism through which I can examine and outline a space, using light as a marker to map her movement across the ‘canvas.’ Light, as both a medium and metaphor, not only reveals these abstract narratives but also represents my own presence within the work itself. Each photograph becomes a testament to this performative interaction, a lasting record of the exchange between human presence and the environment.

AGUAS QUE VAN QUIEREN VOLVER (2023)

José Larralde - Quimey Neuquén

“En tu desbocado potro pehuenche
Del cielo la onda noche
Se oye del viento la serenata
Tu voz la luna prende
En la negra cimba de mi araucana
Aguas que van, quieren volver
Aguas que van, quieren volver”

AN ODE TO MY BODY (2023)
Communitas - Nora Lezano (translated)

“The body is the result and testimony of all its operations - gone through or not - past and present.

Mass in transit and at rest.

As a whole or in parts it is weighted, valued, divided, named, known, ignored, recovered, represented, loaded, and unloaded with things, fluids, knowledge, ideas, and symbols. We place it -or it is placed- in the real world and in the ideal.
It stops, sits, moves, and dies. It stays, it comes, and it goes. We medicalize it, we drug it, we abandon it, we recover it, we lose it, we biologize it, we naturalize it, we fictionalize it, we count it, we weigh it, we fatten it, we lose it, we operate on it, we cut it, we add and disaggregate it, we deliver, we release it, we slow it down, we speed it up, we ask for it, we imagine it, we speak it and make it speak, we squeeze it, we hydrate it, we forget it, we dance it and we make it dance. It is present. It is absent. It is.

How is the truth demonstrated? Build or left? Do we impose ourselves on the body or does it impose itself on us?”
