My characteristic as an artist is to have permanent projects which are never done entirely, as life itself; and at the same time, some of them exist for years just as an idea. I try to approximate art’s from life’s methods. Also the mixing of languages is a characteristic; as well as pliability. That means there are different ways for this work to be displayed on the Bienal Sur: it can have only pictures and texts, graphics elements; it can also have video; it can compose an installation; have me performing it live. It can be a part, it can be all together. And in any way: it will be plenary.

Having that explained, this project sees people as galaxies: a complex system full of proper structures, signs and meaning. Full of lives inside itself. To investigate that, I use groups of body spots as constellations. The inspiration for that came during a trip to Argentina in 2004, when I discovered the word “lunares” nominating the spots on our skins. That semantic issue of Spanish language made me consider.

So I began to either intuitively or by interviewing people, register body constellations and baptize them, inventing myths of creation, legends and fictional stories or explanations for each. I have pictures and texts, objects like maps, videos and the chance to be live performing, talking with people and showing/registering their own galaxies in this human astronomy I do. Also my son was born last year and I’ve been watching the coming spots. Registering the birth of a galaxy.
