Ensamble (Assembly)

Ensamble (Assembly) is an installation of six cement fronts intervened with the sgrafitto technique. In each front, two texts, two voices and two underlinings coexist. Ensamble operates in the intersection between writing, subjectivity, and community. A library. A front of a niche wall. Assembled bodies. Word-body-image. As subjects -first- and as society (is that the order?), we are assemblies. Our readings, our memories, and oblivion define our edge. A keloid that pierces and permeates. Like meaning, like water, it moves through the layers of that superficial, dermal subjectivity that we can mention, and the other -more elusive- that contains the shapes that the mirror returns us. Resonance of voices rubbing the reversible flesh of our history.
What crosses us? Which is the number that assembles us?

Note: the fragments reproduced on the cement are transcriptions of the underlined texts of the artist’s personal library.
