OBLIVION is a word that implies “to be forgotten”, but that can also be related to the idea of amnesty or forgiveness; it is a place of transformation between mourning and emptiness, between nothingness and memory. Based in a dreamlike world made of fantasy and surrealism, OBLIVION could be an image of afterlife, such as Dante describes it in The Divine Comedy: a space conditioned by the idea of the circle, by the eternal wandering of bodies through space; as if in the act of moving through space there was ultimately an act of surrender, a renunciation of everything that binds us to suffering: desire, memories, identity. \u201cVacare\u201d in Latin, means to wander, to float; but it also means “to be empty”. OBLIVION is a a path that becomes easier to walk everytime, a dance of increasing entropy. After all, what is beyond, and oblivion could easily be the same thing.<\/p>\n
