En este video mi cuerpo es objeto de reflexión desde una relación que se funde con la naturaleza. Es un radiografía poética donde juego con el lenguaje para imaginar y proponer quiméricamente conexiones entre mi cuerpo y una naturaleza completa. Hago uso de la palabra y de mi cuerpo para traducir unos estados de búsqueda y desasosiego en esta relación. Mi cuerpo, que es naturaleza pura, intentando vanamente ser parte de esa otra naturaleza.
Este proyecto se compone de un acto performático que realicé, el registro de este acto performático y tomas de videos de archivo de árboles, bosques y selvas que durante un tiempo tomé. Además, consta de un texto poético escrito por mí que hace parte fundamental de la narración y que traduce, en cierta medida, unos estados de consciencia de mi cuerpo y su naturaleza interna que durante un tiempo fueron creciendo dentro mí.
Música por Sebastián Celis C.
In this video I combine my need to understand the relationship between my body and the external nature. However, the video has a fictional and chimerical component that uses the word. It is in the text – in the word that I materialize these fictions that were born from my own reflection on my body.

In this video my body is an object of reflection from a relationship that merges with nature. It is a poetic radiograph where I play with language to imagine and chimerically propose connections between my body and a complete external nature. I use the word and my body to translate states of search and unease in this relationship. My body, which is pure nature, vainly trying to be part of that other nature.
This project is made up of a performative act that I did, the recording of this performative act, and archive video footage of trees, forests, and jungles that I took for a while. In addition, it consists of a poetic text written by me that is a fundamental part of the narrative that translates, to a certain extent, some states of consciousness of my body and its internal nature that for a time were growing within me.
