Elogio al disparate
2024


“At the center of her three films shown at the Secession is, of all things, nonsense. The newly produced works that were shot on 16 mm stock and then transferred to video use free association and formal play to build relationships between sound and image that are not to be grasped by “making” rational sense.

The three films are inspired by jitanjáforas, invented nonsense words, and their exuberant use in Caribbean poetry and music in the twentieth century. These speculative words mostly unfold their poetic dimensions in their phonetic properties. They favor chaos, dissonance and revolutionary spirit over reactionary concepts of fixed truths that secure the political and societal status quo.”
