TAPECODE 9369
An experimental video poem. This videotape is an elegy of remembrance and a meditation on the architecture of the abandoned as evoked in the writing of the Peruvian poet Cesar Vallejo. Taped from 1983 to 1987 in deserted villages and houses in the mountains of Spain, the tape explores that space of the human heart which is shaped by the departure of the people and things of this world.
