Stone Wound

When there is no body, the voice becomes light to continue burning in existence. Sometimes a light that illuminates, other times a dark light that moistens the stone and the memory. By decoupage, those voices can move through time again. Photographed in the General (1821) and Catholic (1883) cemeteries of Santiago, Chile. Flicker Film. 35mm B & W Still Photography. Silent.

A young girl from the town of Chillán (Chile) marries her cousin in 1962. In reverse, the moment and its ghosts emerges from oblivion and returns to it. This is a 8mm family film compiled and re-structured by Gabriel Lizama (AKA Liz Taylor)

The military in the air and the people on the ground. Two dances. A "panorama" of still photos of the Chilean independence day celebrations in the former Cousiño Park, emblem of the Chilean popular party for more than 150 years . Photographed on September 19, 2024, the infamous "day of the glories of the army". Flicker Film. 35mm B & W Still Photography. Silent.

The military statue is absent, yet its presence reigns; it seems like an open wound. With each turn, more buds of time bloom. There are multiple rhythms and points of view in a brief, eternal moment. An exercise in the effect of speed and its personal interplay with the viewer. Photos taken at the scene on October 18, 2024, the fifth anniversary of the 2019 Social Uprising. 35mm B&W Still Photography. Silent. Flickering Lights.
