Strings of gravity vibrate at different frequencies.
In history, the tragedy of our bodies, of lost human worth is revealed.
Fragments and entrails of the body, victims of the ego's greed, in a circle of survival and survivors.
The skin on the cold cement.
The delicacy of the body, within the sharp lines of the architecture.
I look for voices and images to recall and dwell the injustices created by the power of trade, by the commodification of everything.
A dive into time and space.
