The artwork is therefore activated by the artist’s position as both fabricator and performer of the sculpture. This could be seen as a metaphor for resistance, where woven narratives are portrayed as a substitute for the silence of women throughout history.

The recycling aspect in this work happens through many dimensions: content, form and process. Following her performances, the works become sculptures with a history of their own and result in an amalgamation of history and memory. Regenerating these narratives articulates for the artist both a sense of urgency and a mode of resistance.

Catalina’s work translate into key messages and universal concerns such as: sustainability, identity, gender equality and globalization underlining the connections of the Global South throughout history.

It is “Aida”, whose pages are ripped off to make portable sarcophagi of the letter, which makes the tombstones of the unidentified fallen become archaeological findings of a present forced to be recognized acknowledged as a vestige of a damaged memory.
