TECNICA
Twenty excerpts have been selected from eleven literary works to compose an original text that explores the connection between human beings and nature, selfishness, future, and sustainability. It also serves as a critical text, guiding the work from within. The title refers to a quote that defines the technique as an artifice and an instrument for humans to resemble the animal and dominate it. The dialog among diverse texts, the theme of reversal connected to the looking-glass recurring through the excerpts, as well as the use of threads, make Tecnica an extended relay that narrates a transformation. This transformation acquires aged features as it reaches the boundaries of the future.
