| In the microcosm of a fragment of a resin sculpture, we observe fossilized eucalyptus leaves. The suspended still life, where we think we see specters of a world-image, is demystified by the sound of the tumultuous Cure. |
--
Through the relation of a fragment of a resin sculpture, where small eucalyptus branches have been preserved since 1997, with the tumultuous "Cure", composed of piercing frequencies and conflicting beats, finding its harmony in the field of psychoacoustics, we propose the suspension of time and space. In the interval between the light and the deep darkness of 16 mm film, to tell us about the spectra and the proposal of a world-image, we resort to Walt Whitman's words, in the poem “Eidólons”, from his work “Leaves of Grass”.
