I started exploring this theme by projecting these headlines in a blackboard and drawing with chalk on it, as a live action. The result is traces that are often overlooked, that create an ephemeral image of my interpretation of the past in the 'now'. This work conveys political issues that are dealt with in an aesthetic way, and the viewer is challenged to think critically in the politics of memory.\n\nThis performance action, although it was first performed in 2016, it's a timeless action as every time the slideshow with newspaper headlines is altered to dialog and relate to contemporary and actual events of the period when is performed. \nTherefore what interests me as an artist, is to perform this action 'rastreando', along the years, allowing me to 'excavate' the past and relate it to the present moment, evoking a sort of Historical Apokatastasis, as Walter Benjamin would name it : 'the bringing back of all', the waiting for the redemption and recovery of the past, in which the moment will come when generations will come together to share both past experiences and the present moment.","space":"The best space for the work is a dark room, that means, a room without windows or that windows can be shut, or that during the action there is no direct light. It must have a wall painted in Black, with the dimensions of at least 3 meters length and 2.80 meters height. \n\n(This performance was selected for the last Bienal Sur, for an exhibition named \u201cEl huevo de la Serpiente\u201d curated by  Florencia Battiti, for Centro Cultural Haroldo Conti, but it was CANCELLED 3 weeks before it happened).","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/280001434","audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"fileCount":10,"names":"bianca","surname":"turner","email":"biancaturner@gmail.com","dni_type":"Other","dni":"32977718877","address":"Rua General Vitorino Monteiro, 407","city":"S\u00e3o Paulo","nacionality":"Brazil","country_id":"34","birthdate":"1984-10-31T03:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1984-10-31T03:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+5511998332544","web":"www.biancaturner.xyz"}
