“After the triumph of the Cuban Revolution, the government built precarious amphitheatres in every town in the country. These were used for political and cultural activities, they served as a space to promote the country’s ideology. Currently the vast majority of them are in disuse, manifesting the impermanence of ideas.
I am interested in the presence of these amphitheatres in the landscape, they are elements that tell their own story and the one to come. I am attracted to the metaphysical burden that these sites treasure. Their appearances are as if they were inviting us to build a new History.”
