My artistic research seeks to investigate the question of materiality, not strictly linked to the traditional idea of the work of art, but from experiencing a materiality derived from the instrumentality of ecological, political and financial systems. That is to say, a materiality understood by identifying difficulties that contribute to silencing territories, bodies, communities and cultures. In recent years I have participated in several projects in Latin America, some of them focusing on epistemological questions, through site-specific works in museums, libraries and abandoned places.
