Desire and autonomy
How do automatic gestures fill our lives? How many of these gestures are part of our desires and how many are part of a life script imposed on pleasing, liking and caring? This performance puts these gestures into action to break them through encounters and words, appropriating the space and revealing to others their own […]
Ceremony for community hunger
I kneel near those present and begin to remove corn kernels from my right shirt pocket. I place them on the floor and continue to scoop out corn to form a 150 centimeter line, as I move to her side. I change direction and from the left pocket of my shirt I take out corn […]
Menstru/action
I stand behind a table and ask those present: How many of those who are menstruating, how do they live those days, how do they collect their blood? While we exchange experiences, I place on the table three scissors, three cloths in the shape of menstrual dressing and three cloths. Each of them has a […]
Construction of a circle of protection for Mercedes’ hands, for Gracielita’s dreams
This project was carried out in the Originario residence, Cura Malal, Province of Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 2018, under the coordination of Mercedes Resch, Nilda Rosemberg and Verónica Suanno.

Exercise 57
I hold the lower limbs of a male mannequin in one hand, and a paper package in the other. I put the package down and try to locate the mannequin in space, but it cannot stand on its own. I support it on my own body. I open the package, it contains pumpkin puree. From […]
Thirst discourse
If we think of discourse as a repertoire of images that give meaning to doing, feeling and thinking about a topic, Thirst discourse would be those that contain the imagery that comes from the experiences of struggle, frustration and desire of women in the field of creation and art. Many times in these areas we […]
The Revolution will be feminist
I cross the space with a thread and hang some cleaning cloths on it. I take a fibrón and write on my skin some of the labels with which I was nominated throughout my life. Then I offer the fibrón for someone to write about me. That person passes the fibrón to another and so […]
The Revolution was so that the lives of those children could be better
I did this project for the Colectivo Nadie Olvida Nada on the occasion of March 24, National Day of Memory for Truth and Justice. I was interested in thinking of ourselves as children of a generation of disappeared, knowing what memories and resonances exist and, at the same time, understanding what that generation wanted for […]
