Composiciones bajo tierra aborda aspectos clavede la abstracción prehispánica tal como resuenanen diferentes momentos del arte moderno ycontemporáneo. De esta manera, los textilesandinos, los atuendos propios de las ceremoniasselk'nam, y las líneas de Nasca son abordados a laluz de la enseñanza y obra del artista alemán JosefAlbers, la abstracción geométrica de comienzosdel siglo XX, y el Land Art norteamericano,respectivamente. La mirada detrás de estos textosno es la del teórico o historiador del arte, sino ladel artista visual, por lo que las interpretacionesque encontramos son más arriesgadas, perotambién abiertamente tentativas, tal como debieraser todo ensayo en tanto tal.Compositions Under the Soil addresses key aspectsin pre-Hispanic abstraction and how theyresonate through different periods of Modernand Contemporary Art. Therefore the Andeantextiles, the ceremonial Selk'nam attires, andthe Nasca Lines are approached in the lightof the work and teachings of German artistJosef Albers, the early 20th century GeometricAbstraction, and the North American Land Artcorrespondingly. The gaze behind these texts isnot one of an art theorist or historian, but theone of a visual artist, therefore the interpretationsare riskier and openly tentative, as every essay assuch be.
