3 Cajas (Cuchillos, Clavos, ¿Quién mira quem?) (1987/2018)
3 boxes, one with machetes crossed, the other with nails and the last one in crystal clear acrylic with the following inscription aligned and fragmented: ¿Quién mira quem? (Who sees who?). The works retrace the memories of colonization, vestiges of torture and discussion about the look. The magician box that brings back, like an archeologist, rusty machetes, planted in a possible corpse trapped in the torture space. Among them a box with nails that threaten the vision. In an acrylic box, suspended words talk about the gaze of the other and to the other, the confrontation with the different: who are you, who see who? Questions of the foreign look, of when and how we became hybridized, as these transparencies overlap.
