Interdisciplinary project
Performance- Painting - Video- Ephemeral Architecture-Sound Art
Instituto Cultural Cabañas
Guadalajara City, Mexico- May 2007
Tamara is an interdisciplinary piece that uses the metaphor of a woman that lives in a toilet cubicle, to express our need for solitude in the excessive world we live in. Also, the process of digestion is an analogy of the cycles we experience in life of construction, deconstruction and destruction.
Tamara at first glance seems to be a trapped woman, but by unveiling her we discover her multiple facades, since what she truly is, is a vessel of feminine archetypes.
By drawing and writing in a diary without any censoring, I created this piece to receive my own voice and the voices of other women.
During the second year of work, by analysis and reflection I was able to transform the diary into the script for the performance, and the drawings into the painting collection.
The intention of the project is also to portray how contemporary art surrenders into the “not-being” where then there is no possibility of transcendence.
