In Argentina it is not unusual to come across popular altars devoted to people who have tragically died because of accidents or social injustices. If you travel along Argentinean roads, you will encounter a Gauchito Gil altar and when you walk the streets of Buenos Aires you will find an altar from Crogmagnon, among others. These altars are in constant flux, modifying their surroundings, while at the same time being places of constant intervention.

Performance is my archive: of memory, pain, death, hope and travel. This altar [of and from myself] presents a cross- cultural identity and architecture of memory. I am creating a connection between different sites and times: Argentina, Peru, Colombia, Cuba, Canada, Uruguay, Turkey: future, present, past.
