Visual artist, Cutral-Có, Neuquén, 1989.
My production reflects on the body and co-affection in the context I inhabit. I explore the performativity of everyday gestures and explore the contrasts between a documentary record and an expressionist atmosphere. I inhabit an intimate representation understanding the body as verb, territory and site, which then allows me to develop different processes where writing, photography, video and performance are present. In my works, I also seek a critical approach to the experimentation of different materials, supports and working methodologies. On the one hand, through self-portraiture, automatic writing and poetry, I reveal a cathartic autobiography that is always permeated by the contemporary social, political and cultural context. On the other hand, the performance appears in a desire of interruption and interaction with the public, since I am interested in generating a space of encounter where the bodies end up configuring the device.
