The theme of the finitude of being is another of the recurring interests in my work. In this project I start from the fear of loneliness and of existence itself understood as an inexorable journey towards an irrevocable end point. The performance begins when I start singing the well-known song Stand by me. About fleeting describes a route that divides the gallery into two parts. We move clumsily from side to side while we metaphorically strip ourselves of some elements that tie us to the material. In the center of this journey, a toy horse spins around while talcum powder draws the imprint of that which cannot remain.
