Palabras prestadas

(Borrowed words) Two-channel video installation, colour, sound, 1'20'' (loop), 2007
Project Llevo toda mi vida doblando

Double screen video where the protagonist acts as her own double. The text of the work, inspired by (eg. copied) Samuel Beckett’s The Unnamable, alludes to questions related to identity as well as the complications or impossibilities of communication, hereby negating the original basis of dubbing.

Installation view, Bilbao, 2007
