Presence Archive 2011 – 2024
How to turn on the memory of a performance? How to bring what happened to the presence? In 2011 I made the durational performance Presencia in Lola Mora Gallery, Pergamino, as part of the first group show Nadie Olvida Nada Arte con Memoria. In 2024 a retrospective will be held celebrating the years […]
Afraid to speak
The Museo del Libro y de la Lengua de Buenos Aires invited me to make this performance -already realized in 2019- around the poem Hablar del miedo by Hilda Rais* Argentine poet present in the exhibition ARDER en lo ya ardiendo ardía curated by Andi Nachon and Juan Fernando García. In this action, a rite […]
All that I can wish for fits between my hand and the river
This installation is the result of a project carried out at Residencia Raíces. Aconquija, Catamarca. I was interested in continuing my research guided by the question about the bodies and the memories of the body when it finds itself in another territory, another temperature, another time. The procedures for the research were guided by […]
How many bodies go into one body
The point of contact of two organisms, of two bodies, forms a territory that is linked to a larger community fabric of sympoiesis; when one of them becomes ill or goes through a difficult vital situation, the other sustains and modifies itself. How many bodies go into one body? Infinite, because our lives are interwoven […]
We are not territory of conquest
Through our body-earth territory, knowledge and affective memories circulate that are linked and allow us to expand our desires in a communal way. We are not a territory of conquest invites us to awaken those memories and to recover those knowledge that is activated through art and encounter, and that establish identity. Summoning intimate spaces, […]

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 […]
Motherboard
Motherboard was a collective and performative project that I did with Niny Gamboa, Lolo Villacis and Julieta Anaut. The name Motherboard refers, on the one hand, to the card that gathers all those printed circuits that allow interconnecting the various elements that make up a computer and that is a fundamental and necessary organ for […]
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 […]
