Concept  Sample 
The work is an installation in which public takes part in an almost unconscious way.
It is a passage, a wall of the memories and the glances of the children who escape of the glance of people.

In the installation a video of children of the street is project; when somebody walks in front of the projection the parts that are crossed by the person disturb in small parts to escape these towards the contour of the traveller escaping to the projection of their shade.

There is a displacement that makes our conscience release our faults when journeying by the world. That darkens our glance for not seeing the atrocities that we allow in name of certain humanity.
2 Projections and Audio in real time. Synchronous by 3 Powerbooks connected between them with a network of clients and a server in Processing.

The video of the boy is disturb in particles when is cross by the shade of the person that is watching it. Voices of children in a dining room are hear until somebody stops in the boy and the laughter is transform into noise in the measurement that the person is facing the projection. Before that same action, a flower is born in the field of the left projection. If the person goes away, the flower dies, if the person remains sufficient time the flower germinates in a name.

Those boys of the street are not identifie, are a common unconscious, all are one; names have our children. It is necessary to stop in front them so that they receive individual existence, name and a presence. The field of the left projection is generated with the analizis make by a webcam of the behavior of the public in front of the piece.

Motive Scream 

If I see a young lady being rapped, i wouldnt hesitate and I´d call the police, i´d be part of this . I would never stop to think in that instant about the fair of justice, or in the sort of ephimerous destiny of the delinquent.
When i see a child suffering from hunger, a child with no education, an unprotected child , i´m tempted to question the just of justice. The benefit of doing the right thing, the functioning of institutions, The strength of acts and civil behaviour.

Im looking for excuses to justify what left that child there.
I just want to escape from my own guilts.
Am I not horrified by crimes against childhood? do i accept a suffering child?
im a criminal, witness and accomplice without punishment.

How can i accept an inocent taking the blame?
i am tired of justice sweetening the atrocities of men
I do not accept, under no circunstancies, a democracy, a justice or a citizenship that doesn´t get horrified of this facts..

I do not accept a god that in my salvation lets a child in amid of hardship.And if i have to pay with hell and fight against him, i prefer my flesh to burn, but my soul will never agree with the suffering from hunger and misery of the children of the world.



Crying 
Not even a line of this piece, nor a second of this exposition, is going to calm the hunger of any kid.
this fury is also against me.

Stinky is the progress in your history.
The suffering is the concrete that your rented social constructions buy.
It is suffering what you pay with for you comfort and benefits.
It is not your crying, your are not good at that, you buy it from someone else.
The crying of a kid in his far away neighbourhood, the cold he goes through Every night, pays your son´s studies, his food and his happiness..
The price of progress is in inocents´ tears, they pay for what they don´t see.
Look at them in the streets, playing. they are still laughing a little
They are looking for tenderness, as your childen.
Look at yours, and tell them that the future you bought them is above other ones´ grave.
If you can, do it, tell them to go and play with them, dancing the death round that screams from the other ones bellies..
You can´t
Feel ashamed when you step on the street
Because from the concret of progress, souls claim for their calamity.
Dont look at your neightbour, he wont look back at you either, be the blame a weight in you look
Carry with your eyes the rest of your days
Today, when you eat, you´ll eat the flesh of that kid that smiled in his little brothers´ arms.
Eat progress the rest of your life, this life will forget about you and your history.
But the life that history does not swallow, you´ll carry it forever in you hell.
