Reglas de camuflaje y supervivencia is an oneiric and imaginative work that bases on a research on relationships between performativity and mythology and their power to build other perceptual and material experiences. Starting from the subversion of mythologies of the Misiones province (where the artist comes from) and the invention of a queerer mythology, the work delves into the sexual dissidences in rural and precarious sectors where the discrimination is still more complex due to the intersection of class, race, and gender conflicts. For the artistic procedure of this piece, I create a versatile textile object that works as a shabby work tool, tablecloth, phantom suit, superhero cloak, sheet, siren tail. The subtropical forest as the face of forbidden, the hidden and the cruising in a province where the heteronormativity system oppresses and weakens every identity outside the hegemony.
