Alkémico: 
immigration Napkin
found object
2023

Presente Alkémico is a title that I use to name projects that are done on the go, outside of designated spaces for art. These projects come as a proposal for the present moment to be shaped otherwise or sprout unforeseable creative gifts. Immigration Napkin is a napkin full of lipstick marks, given to me by an immigration officer at the Schipol Airport. A small treasure. A suspension of our positions and of our prescribed script. A suspension (may I dare) of our separation in a second of complicity and collaboration.
