“La maternidad era un asunto muy misterioso. Qué valiente debía ser una mujer para embarcarse en algo así, pensó mientras reflexionaba sobre la trayectoria vital de su madre / Motherhood was a very mysterious affair. How brave a woman must be to embark on such a thing, she thought as she reflected on her mother’s life trajectory."⠀

“Pequé de silencio ante ti y ante mí. Cuando el silencio se instala dentro de una casa, es muy difícil hacerlo salir; cuanto más importante es una cosa, más parece que queramos callarla. Parece como si se tratara de una materia congelada, cada vez más dura y masiva: la vida continúa por debajo, sólo que no se la oye. Woroïno estaba lleno de un silencio que parecía cada vez mayor y todo silencio está hecho de palabras que no se han dicho. Quizás por eso me hice músico. Era necesario que alguien expresara aquel silencio, que le arrebatara toda la tristeza que contenía para hacerlo cantar. Era preciso servirse para ello, no de palabras, siempre demasiado precisas para no ser crueles, sino simplemente de la música, porque la música no es indiscreta y cuando se lamenta no dice por qué. Se necesitaba una música especial, lenta, llena de largas reticencias y sin embargo sin embargo verídica, adherida al silencio para acabar por meterse dentro de él. Esa música ha sido la mía. Ya ves que no soy más que un intérprete, me limito a traducir. Pero sólo traducimos nuestras emociones: siempre hablamos de nosotros mismos."⠀

“En este brutal contexto, la utilidad de los saberes inútiles se contrapone radicalmente a la utilidad dominante que, en nombre de un exclusivo interés económico, mata de forma progresiva la memoria del pasado, las disciplinas humanísticas, las lenguas clásicas, la enseñanza, la libre investigación, la fantasía, el arte, el pensamiento crítico y el horizonte civil que debería inspirar toda actividad humana. En el universo del utilitarismo, en efecto, un martillo vale más que una sinfonía, un cuchillo más que una poesía, una llave inglesa más que un cuadro: porque es fácil hacerse cargo de la eficacia de un utensilio mientras que resulta cada vez más difícil entender para qué pueden servir la música, la literatura o el arte."⠀

"In this brutal context, the usefulness of useless knowledge is radically opposed to the dominant utility that, in the name of an exclusive economic interest, progressively kills the memory of the past, humanistic disciplines, classical languages, education, freedom research, fantasy, art, critical thinking and the civil horizon that should inspire all human activity. In the universe of utilitarianism, in effect, a hammer is worth more than a symphony, a knife more than poetry, a wrench more than a painting: because it is easy to take over the effectiveness of a utensil while it is increasingly difficult understand what music, literature or art can be used for."⠀

DETRÁS DEL OLVIDO⠀
⠀
Lo único sólido que de él quedó fue su chaqueta.⠀
La colgaron allí, en el armario grande. Fue olvidada.⠀
Se pegó al fondo, detrás de nuestras ropas de verano, de invierno,⠀
nuevas cada año, para nuestras necesidades nuevas. Hasta que,⠀
un día, llamó nuestra atención puede que por su color extraño,⠀
puede que por su anticuado corte. ⠀
Sobre sus botones⠀
había tres imágenes, iguales y redondas:⠀
el muro del fusilamiento, con cuatro agujeros,⠀
y alrededor, nuestro remordimiento.⠀
⠀
BEHIND THE OBLIVION⠀
⠀
The only solid thing left of him was his jacket.⠀
They hung it there in the big closet. It was forgotten.⠀
It stuck to the bottom, behind our summer, winter clothes,⠀
new every year, for our new needs. Until,⠀
one day, it caught our attention perhaps because of its strange color,⠀
maybe because of its old-fashioned cut.⠀
About its buttons⠀
there were three images, equal and round:⠀
the wall of execution, with four holes,⠀
and around, our remorse.⠀
⠀

Almost time to welcome 2021. Each year since 2015, I have created a new year image. They have turned into my biggest pieces of the year.
