Tonight I will be showing a video I made back in 2012 during my ISCP artist residency in NYC, shortly before and after hurricane Sandy stroke the City.
So happy i was persuade by my friend and host Oscar Olias to show a work that it has never been shown to any audience, tonight part of the new series of “Radio Musikii” followed by Sound artist Elodie Le Neidre and her project “Lagno”
“Sandy” is a video project made during the days before and after Hurricane Sandy hit New York City in October 2012. The footage presents different urban landscapes in which I carried out different actions of a minimal and symbolic nature. The work emphasizes the temporary suspension of the city’s capitalist logic and monumental character under a state of blackout.
Back in 2010, I started a music project with my dear friend @furenku in which we performed popular national songs that expressed themes of loss and grief—songs deeply embedded in cultural memory. During some weeks we performed this “songs of mourning” in different public spaces a cross the city, the project culminated in a midnight performance at the gates of the Mexican Embassy as a symbolic and intimate gesture that was part of a broader body of work that questioned notions of identity.
Now, 15 years later, I’ve decided to take back on this one and perform again 3 songs from that era among some new and old watercolor works.

Grateful that managed to finish this piece during my short stay in Mexico.
"Combinations of blue and white corn shaped into small spheres, reminiscent of those used in Mexico’s rich culinary traditions. A simple gesture that gives abstract form to the fusion of races— in this case, two races of corn.
During the drying process, the corn develops these cracks, marking it with the passage of time, giving it a unique fractured appearance, like dry earth."
From 2011 installation view 2013 at Kunsthalle Wilhelmshaven
“Due to the materials fragility, the installation composed of collected receipts lost its original configuration throughout the exhibition, ultimately resulting in an exhausted structure collapsed within the gallery space”.
