Maine Fake Inspection Stickers

Call


Disturbing coordinates organizing the tour. For a moment, signaling the ethics of separation which exists on the land plot of society. This exercise gives a brief interaction with the reconstructed image of urban signage, which is mobilized and temporarily installed in the corners of the quadrant of the Plaza de la Independencia, the address that points have been reconfigured: segregated communities identify their delivery systems, loaded a conflict continuously reproduced by the local press.

Juxtaposed to the commonly used road signs, this one SIGNALING us see more than the basic antagonism between center and periphery. Rather, the character "minimum" of the action - their mobility and fleeting - lead us to a reading dispossession of modern rhetoric on the marginal. Here, the criticism of the separation comes less in the denunciation of a polarity in the presence of a cross imagined, and it is in the rigged nature of this intersection that the relationship is revealed as an absence. A set of signs that look back on the fragmentation of public space, where the relationship between communities and the recognition has been deposed by the connectivity of the highways and the privatization of public space. And the city of ads, images and lights - the aesthetic regime of the movement, stands on a field tensioning coercion and power relations, is the ethics of progress of Gran Concepción, moving in a similar proportion to social fragmentation.

Emergency Leonera Costanera Sur Boca, Lieut. Merino ... perhaps the political potential of contemporary art is a practice of de-identification, which subverts the isolation and invite new ways of relating. I think that makes the game SIGNALING this tension between identity and representation that imposes a sectorized treatment of society and the de-identification that is glimpsed in the act of altering devices that support the language of exclusion. In order to disturb the daily use of signs and signal disturb social order fragmentation could be a first year to make other modes of recognition, identities are constructed in a dynamic passing and mobility.
