A line of little artificial bulbs inside a natural space. The lights go on one after the other, making up a straight line without detours or flickering movements. Living with these lights, the light shed by those erratic, intermittent night glow-worms that fill Tucumán's nights in the mountains.

I seek for the natural and the artificial to overlap, for the hopeful will of art to merge with the involuntary, unconscious beauty of nature. I seek for the kind of work that is aimed at art, for what does not "work" but just "is".
