Una promesa se insinúa -&#38;nbsp;A promise is made

Publication 2024-25
 ✦&#38;nbsp; A riso-printed publication of drawings and poems both in English and Spanish✦ 80 pages✦ first edition of 50 numbered copies 










What does it mean to be inside a promise? How can we make sense of the promises we are given and the ones we make? What are the conditions and expectations when we make a promise to each other? How can we rebuild meaning around them? Do we need them? Have we lost them?

Last year (2024), while delving into the vast spectrum of these daily contracts, I drew and wrote and fell under a spell.

I started this project at a residency at Köne Foundation during the last months of 2023.

I wanted the publication to start with pinky promises and end with an epilogue on “the promised land” .For this las chapter, I‘ve invited two friends and artists, Daniel Alva (Peru) and Kari Rosenfeld (United States) to share their poetic testimonies and experiences.

The First Metaphore Was Animal audio &#38;amp; captions video - 2024✦ &#38;nbsp;During my Field of Study residency at Mirror Institute, two domesticated horses trained for dressage competition lived among us. They were recovering from severe injuries, feeding on a piece of barren land that was healing in its own way. "The First Metaphor Was Animal" was the title of the workshop I led at the residency, its name was taken from John Berger's book "Why Look at Animals?" (1980). During the workshop we sought to unravel, among other things, the dynamics involved in the process of domestication; those that are at play when confronting a non-human entity with an alien language, with its order, its hierarchies, and its contradictions, and how these processes reflect many situations in which we engage with an "other". In the specific process of animal training, the language involved becomes more specific and triggers different confluences of control and play.
In this sound piece, I tried to represent those different layers where the presence of the trainer and the horse seemed to be on separate timelines and spaces, sometimes coinciding, sometimes far away from each other. For me, a lingering question remains about what happens to the new language the animal has acquired once it is alone, or when it is in pairs

&#38;nbsp; &#38;nbsp;&#38;nbsp;Tongues and Flowers✦ On-going series ( 2023 ~ )&#38;nbsp;✦&#38;nbsp; Color pencils on paper&#38;nbsp;
The set of drawings Tongues and Flowers came through my interest in looking into 17th and 18th century still life paintings of imperial and colonial countries. I believe those portraits can give us a glimpse not only of how the concept of nature was built in Western societies but also how the ideas of what it means to be (and not to be) human were being configured. I am interested in how colonial processes were also being portrayed through these paintings, like an underlayer that comes to the surface with more clarity over time, confusing the contours of the calm figures portrayed on top. There is no innocence in still life paintings, but a static depiction of violence. Most of the flowers that were being portrayed back then were foreign, meaning that access to them was extremely exclusive and therefore only available to the upper class. The same class that during those times was profiting from their imperial trades and colonies. But with the trade of beautiful flowers and bouquets came along new pests, the intruding and disruptive figure of unwanted insects. Insects are also depicted in those paintings as vanishing witnesses of non-human life, as carriers of a secret that cannot be heard as they sing on the threshold of the violent binary that is being depicted. Insects are usually removed from their inherited quiescence and placed as decorative jewellery of a stolen and bare nature. They are placed as fake signatures of consent. What I intent to explore in my version of still life drawings are the whispered songs of kinship through the shape-shifting bodies of insects that represent for me a source of inspiring desire.

Honey zine vol.2✦ Drawing
✦ https://honeyzine.bigcartel.com/
HONEY is a zine meditating on the experiences of friendship.

Volume 2 was edited by Mars Dietz, Opashona Ghosh and Dylan Spencer-Davidson—each inviting contributions from friends.

Following vol. 1’s optimism about the underappreciated potentials of friendship, vol. 2 marks a noticeable turn towards friendship's messier sides. Letters to deceased friends, childhood social complexities, unrealised sexual desire, pushback against the overfetishisation of queer kinship, and more.


Original artworks by Opashona Ghosh and Iga Świeściak, and featuring artworks by Azul De Monte and Emily Pope.

Riso printed on recycled paper with Pagemasters (London).

Oh! That’s Cute!: an explorative essay on cuteness w/ Kari Rosenfeld
For this e-log entry I invited artist Kari Rosenfeld to spend a cozy day together talking about cuteness. We dressed in a way that made us feel cute and wondered around thinking on ways to perform and inhabit cuteness in our alien cities (Rotterdam - Berlin). In the voice-notes shared during this day we recall former ideas and develop new ones together.

The first metaphor was “animal” 
workshop at Field of Study
Two domesticated horses will be living among us these few days. During our stay in the residency we will probably try to find their gaze, as an erotic gesture that anticipates the touch of our hand brushing their fur, a dream of a seamless connection, perhaps... or, an entanglement of fears. Looking at animals comes with a complexity of desires and anxieties. We will certainly be affected by the few moments of recognition, as their gaze traps ours. Those moments can feel like a treat after grieving an unspoken language or, like a magnifying lens over the mesmerizing gap that allow us to be shadow of each other.

Oh! That’s Cute! - video performance&#38;nbsp;In this performance, I delve into the spectrum of cuteness—its emotional and interpersonal dimensions, and the body language it entangles—while displaying/playing with some of its characteristic elements. Questions of how solitude and desire are represented under this aesthetic category are present throughout the piece. Changing abruptly from binary emotions like happy/cute/dominant to sad/vulnerable/submissive helps me translate some of the ideas behind what it means to be cute under late capitalism and how (if possible) we can find some potential in a type of cuteness that escapes being tokenized and can help in the building of an expanding kinship. &#38;nbsp;

In Between a Cute Ripple of Desire - solo showNieuwe Vide - Haarlem - 2021&#38;nbsp;

This show was divided into four rooms, each of them tainted with different colors of light and each of them reflecting on the wide spectrum of cuteness.



✦Pink room:&#38;nbsp;
 In the welcoming pink room, a soundtrack was played through the speakers hanging out from the ceiling. The tracks combined musical elements of pop and hyper-pop with my voice singing melodies and jingles on top. The lyrics of the songs were ripples from the small essay I wrote about cuteness that was presented during the show as well. 






✦Yellow room:&#38;nbsp; 
The reading room for visitors to grab a copy of the essay and read comfortably if desired.


✦Purple room: 
A video of dripping erotic fluids were played in silence.


✦Cyan room:&#38;nbsp;











In this part of the exhibition, you could listen to whispering thorugh a thunder, an&#38;nbsp;audio track where a soundscape of a storm unfolds into a voice imitating wind and trying to speak using a single breath of air each time. Throughout the sound piece, the storm and other artificially created sounds from a “natural” environment start slowly to give space to erotic whispers and cute sounds. 

The wall artworks that were shown with this sound piece were alluding to the water element of the tracks; to the artificiality of nature by imitating raindrops over a window and a mirror. The process of reducing the storm to isolated sounds until it transform into voice was also signaled on the sculptures. In one of the mirror pieces, you could read through liquid resin the phrase: “I want to feel emotion without reduction, Why don’t you drop in the floor and drip”





You can listen to the sound pieces here! &#38;nbsp;

Dialogue with AccumulationVide0 animation and&#38;nbsp; performance&#38;nbsp;✦ 2022 - De Ruitme - Amsterdam - with Raffia Li✦ 2021 - Radio Koowijt - Apeldoorn, Netherlands&#38;nbsp; - with Lou Lou Sainsbury and Kari Rosenfeld
Dialogue with accumulation is a video and performance developed during the earlier stages of the COVID-19 lockdown. Touch is a transformational gesture that informs the surfaces and skins that perform it. But touch is regulated: elements inside any (power) structure are organise in specific ways that determine which elements are allowed to be in touch with each other and which are kept at a distance. This piece is a response to those privileged touches that would be able to transform our present and material reality and because of this nature, are out of reach. The result is merely a perpetuation of gestures that can only numb the membranes of our senses. Skins therefore become used to interact through non-transformative touches until no change can be imagined. Dialogue with accumulation alludes to this layering of numbing touches and responds to those that are privileged enough to transform the world with one simple handshake.

n0!video animation - 2017The protagonists of these videos are various sports tools failing in their attempts to score. The elements appear enchanted, working against each other.In the golf scenes, a ball rolls around trying to catch a moving hole. In the tennis scenes, a racket seems unable to hit the ball. In the basketball scenes, the ball teases the net by shrinking and never scoring while&#38;nbsp; in the football scenes, the ball refuses to enter the goal. &#38;nbsp;
