INNER MAPS
My motivation is to create a link between two countries - Argentina where I was born and the country my ancestors came from ( Spain). "Inner Maps" is a journey of the process of adaptation as a new immigrant from another country on the island of Ibiza. The installation symbolizes the link between the two. The branches (roots) “hold” the fabric; The fabric represents the map (which symbolically contains the elements that guide the traveler; in this case the map is internal and carries the memories and sensations of existence. The projection on the fabric documents a performance I did few years ago inside an alberca, a traditional ibizenco water reservoir used for irrigation. The alberca was the frame, “the limit” of this action, and in it I made a large scale “painting” using natural pigments. It was part of my research process focusing on inner maps; the sky-earth-sky connection as an inner guide. The installation is a transit between territories, moving through fears or doubts to take some steps towards the new; towards the light.

Introducing the sample of my first art book, VISIONS From SOMEWHERE, is about finding new ways to be in this moment and share the voice in the contemporary art world, pushing boundaries and raises profound questions. My work invites us to imagine new possibilities, and to reflect on the worlds we each contain within. To explore different ways of seeing, to venture into fresh territory – and to dream and discover, as we take our own journeys into the unknown.
