Ouroboros Project
1997
The Project Ouroboros was presented at the Museo de Bellas Artes in October 1997 as a video installation, theater, dance and dreams. It was about life cycles and personal transformation based in a real inwards artistic experience, exploring the intrinsic pulsations between birth-death, lost-gain, expansion-contraction, polarity present in life’s rhythm.

Original video
Ouroboros – ancient symbol of an emblematic snake biting itself in the tail, constantly self-devouring and being reborn from itself. It expresses the unity of things, which never disappears, but constantly change form in an eternal cycle of destruction and creation.
