Il s'agit d'une série de photomontages qui met en dialogue une photographie avec un objet trouvé. Prise en août 2015 sur le rivage de la mer Méditerranée, côté français, la photographie se compose d'une route cheminant vers un horizon unique, la mer.

Alors que la fonction d'origine de la boite est le transport des marchandises, on distingue sur celle-ci des insignes inédites que l'artiste y a inscrit. Afin d'appréhender l'objet, on tourne de chaque côté pour en saisir les différents aspects. C'est ainsi que deux phrases apparaissent en 4 langues (français, espagnol, arabe et anglais) : Nous sommes terre / Nous sommes exilé(e)s.

Au moment où la crise migratoire dans la mer Méditerranée est plus que jamais une question centrale, cette série photographique, à la fois expérimentale et conceptuelle, questionne le paradoxe de nos priorités dans les sociétés capitalistes.






ES

Nosotros somos tierra Nosotros somos exiliados

Se trata de una serie de fotomontajes que pone en dialogo una fotografia y un objeto encontrado. Tomada en agosto 2015 en el borde francés del mediterraneo, la fotografia esta compuesta de una ruta que lleva a un horizonte unico, el mar.

La función inicial de la caja es el transporte de mercancías, sin embrago se distinguen, sobre ella, insignias inéditas que la artista ha inscrito. Con el fin de aprehender el objeto observamos cada lado del mismo, así podemos formar dos frases en cuatro lenguas (francés, español, árabe e inglés) : Nosotros somos tierra / Nosotros somos exiliados.

En este momento que la crisis migratoria en el mar mediterraneo es una cuestión central, esta serie fotografica, a la vez experimental y conceptual, cuestiona la paradoja de nuestras prioridades en las sociedades capitalistas.

This series of photographs and objects that becomes an installation are the first two parts of the Queer Constellation. The black and white printed photographs are made from queer fetish objects, in a performative gesture of surveying intimate and public places. The images are intervened with words. There emerges a language of Abya Yala's intersectional feminism. One could say a queer and anti-racist eco feminism.
On the other hand, photographs of performances with starry backgrounds are used as metaphors. On the one hand this re-situates the human in a geological and cosmic scale, on the other hand it shows different constellations or worlds co-inhabiting together. A world that contains many worlds as the Zapatistas say.

This installation around a feminist SF tells the utopia of a queer community, propelled by the global south, which seeks autonomy of its food and health and does not want to reproduce the society of today. It is in search of in search of ancestral and contemporary body memories and ecological knowledge to redefine their territories and boundaries in different parts of the world and in cyber space. This series is imagined as a diversity of constellations where | address issues such as care through medicinal plants, emotional digestion, dancing as a way of performing bodily and self-care tools; gender deconstruction, alternative thoughts and writings.
 
In this context | program different laboratories and collective workshops that allow the movement of bodies and thoughts, the conversation and the construction of multiple points of view, in collaborative care environments. Some of these collective and individual photographs are the result of invitations and the setting up of the workshop "Pelvica": danced ritual, medicinal plants, drawing and automatic writing & collective performance photography. These laboratories were activated in Colombia, with the help of the traversées grant, at the Tour Mercuriales in Bagnolet within Plateau Urbain and at the Cité Internationale des Arts, as a laureate of the Fondation Carasso. This series is currently in post-production, is open and will continue.
