Amor, olvidé decir antes que
mi corazón se parece más
a un tatuaje de Black Flag
imprudente pero revelador➀ que m’alimento de l’estrat
del subsòl, del fil de l’os, de l’ammonita –la memòria.
que sóc l’humà, el vestigi i el servidor que bull.
que sóc l’aliment i el carburant, el pedal i la banya
del bou, la pantalla i l’estrop.

You hear someone whispering near you. The uvula is the muscular support of a performance sung in a hushed voice that Ariadna Guiteras will prolong throughout the day. You might find her hidden behind a corner or circulating around the building. The song that she sings is potentially neverending and amasses personal experiences, poems and fragments of theoretical texts about the history of bread, sex and petroleum.
Making bread, like fucking
Unctuous materials derived from fossils are accumulated in the kitchen on the ground floor. It could be the preparations for a sacrificial ritual or perhaps the remains of an orgy. Clay, latex and petroleum jelly shape a volcanic landscape of sorts, the culmination of a performative act presented by Ariadna Guiteras in a deferred way; through its material traces.
