-------------------
Vertical lights on lost bodies is a piece that presents itself as a series of images constituting themselves in unstable forms, crystallizing and intertwining with one another.
They are body-memories of something already experienced - perhaps already heard - which, although in their individuality, merge into a plastic homogeneity, which acts as a filter of memory. The elements materialize in a flow of sound made up of long breaths. Nothing, however, is really unveiled: the images are attacked by a process of decomposition and transmutation that, while preserving their features, defamiliarizes them, breaks them up, sometimes reconstitutes and selects them without any purpose other than to ensure their persistence.
The line of the piece thus writes a form without a narrative: it wraps around itself in a sort of labyrinth, a system of correspondences where events constantly relate and diversify in their stratification.
