DESPIEL

Romero distances himself from the usual perception of art as magic. He introduces us to this new series, the result of a different kind of exercise, that of the observer of time. Conceiving the existence as an act of memory, experimenting with the identity as a perpetuos detachment from the skin, facades and costumes.

The skin that I inhabit is borrowed. The skins that inhabit me, have been used by those who came before. Nothing belongs to me and the clothes that I wear are provisional. Even if the movie that showcases myself makes everyone around me believe that I can only be what is seen, and not  what I truly am. This collection constitutes a bold incitement to look within life's layers, densities, and textures. It's about leaving behind the clothes that we wear and showing them in a new disposition, hanging and supported by other memories.
