Private Project

Stays

Stays is a metaphorical project that speaks of the human being as a room: a space in which other beings can enter and leave, they can inhabit and remain, and in their passage they leave traces. The decision to be inhabited and the inevitability of other beings staying inside indefinitely. The human fear of being stripped, leaving the other to be while there are no barriers that prevent him from seeing. The recognition that all beings go through these struggles ignoring that the other is the same, and that as an individual, among many individuals, one can only be fragility.
