El mismo sol, otra luz

After emigrating to Germany, I reencountered analogue images I filmed on the Island of the Moon in Lake Titicaca. To experience these images in my new context opened up some associations in between mining exploitation and the creation of images. I weaved a sensorial journey that confronts and contrast territories and bodies of water which are constantly exploited. I approached some visual imaginaries of the Island of the moon written in the Copacabana de los Incas by Jesus Vizcarra and the scientific text The islands of Titicaca and Koati by Adolph Bandelier. These two books brought me to the Ibero Amerikanisches Institut in Berlin which also became into an evidence of the connections in between Nations states and the centralization of knowledge. My appreciation and respect to my memories in the Island of the Moon trespasses all these inevitable reflections that my new environment triggered me. The film trespasses a linear time-space storytelling, passing through The Island of the moon, the Rhine and some RWE energy plants in NRW.
