Ningún río me protexe de min (2019)
Multi-channel Video Installation. HD Digital Video, Super 8mm & 16mm Film Digital Transfer. Sound. 24min Looped.
Ningún río me protexe de min – No river protects me from myself (2019) is a flight backwards in response to the impossibility of presenting a reality beyond our own. The mysterious disappearance of material filmed inside the Rainforest of the Congo Basin resolved all conflicts that had arisen from the incapacity to virtualize what is beyond ordinary reality, instigating the examination of myself in order to establish what pushes me to go to remote places in the world.
Fragmented, contradictory and based on fragile foundations of identity, the work derives from a constellation of narratives and mental states. Far from being able to conceive them in a linear way, they are reflected, questioned, overlap or are self-determined through their position in a precise space and time.
