I escape when I have to define myself. I remember when I used to listen to music and couldn’t stop dreaming and having ideas. Or when I discovered Piezas Distinguidas by La Ribot. Or that time I committed to that big thing after a class with Roberto Fratini. When I heard Søren on stage. The moment after finishing The Bell Jar. When I travel alone. When a breakup happens. When: and Now? sometimes motionless. I can only observe. Shy and critical. I try to know a little more. Each time. Today, I devote myself to research. It must be this way with every piece. I think differently so that I can constantly contradict myself. Where might the mystery be this time?

Residency project

The day my father finished designing and building the house in which he had invested more than five years of his life, we organized a meal on the terrace. My grandfather, with a smile and a glass of champagne in his hand, pointed to the mountain right in front of the house, looked at us all, and said, “That over there is an ‘oasis.’” Then we all toasted, happy to celebrate the culmination of a shared effort. That same year, the 2008 crisis began. With angelical I want to reverse the idea of precariousness so that, instead of being a force that generates immobility, it creates material. Radical material.
