"...Fragmenting nature to construct a non-place. T

he patterns come together to form a whole that could expand infinitely - permanent, overlapping, inexhaustible.

How do we perceive the nature of which we are a part?

What do we claim as our own and what do we feel is external to us?

What contains us?..."

About the installation:

This work is composed of tens of thousands of fragmented and superimposed videos—scenes captured in various ecosystems across Latin America. 

The visual journey functions as an artificial and recursive ecosystem.

 

The projection on the floor forms the base pattern and interacts with the other surfaces, creating thousands of overlapping temporal variations. 

Much like the act of painting with light, each visual layer emerges from the one before it, generating an infinite feedback loop that saturates and redefines the architectural space.

Each fragment forms part of a broader pattern, in constant flux and evolution.

​

Pattern 1, the floor: the videos overlap and project to form a new dynamic shape—an organic movement created from the blending of countless fragments. 

Pattern 2 (Video and Wall 1) contains Pattern 1, but flattened and starting at different times, with more than 20 initial variations superimposed onto Pattern 1. 

Each subsequent pattern—Video 2, Video 3, and so on—emerges from the previous one, until a final composition is reached in Video 7. 

Each new pattern builds upon the previous one, creating a recursive visual system that continues to evolve.

​

The soundtrack consists of dozens of audio tracks recorded in the various ecosystems featured in the film. 

These natural sounds overlap and intertwine, creating an auditory experience that complements the visual work, immersing the viewer in a composition created specifically for the piece.
