Resumen
Descripción
“El espectro que soy yo” es una mirada incompleta de mi vida en la ciudad, la universidad y el arte, es decir, de un cúmulo de acontecimientos fraccionados que dicen muy poco de los sucesos, pero me permiten hacer un dibujo de lo que soy y seré. No podemos saber si lo que recordamos como cierto ocurrió tal como nos llegan las imágenes mentales. Hacemos versiones y estas pueden ser tergiversaciones. Cada vez que relatamos algo que nos pasó lo hacemos de manera diferente, le agregamos o le quitamos. Los humanos tenemos la condición y la capacidad de fabular con nuestra existencia. Si es imposible contar una historia enteramente veraz, no está mal regocijarnos con la posibilidad de que cada uno haga su propia adaptación de los hechos.
“The Specter That I Am” is an incomplete view of my life in the city, at the university and within art; that is, a series of fragmented events that say very little about what happened, but allow me to draw a picture of what I am and will be. We cannot know if what we remember as true happened exactly as the mental images retell it. We make versions and these can be misrepresentations. Whenever we report something that happened to us we do it differently, we add or remove elements. Human beings have the condition and ability to make up stories with our own existence. If it is impossible to tell an entirely truthful story, it is not bad to rejoice with the possibility that each of us can elaborate their own adaptation of the events.
