Acechados por el mundo, por el otro, por el tiempo, por un “sistema”. Unas veces somos perseguidos… otras veces perseguidores.
Stalked by the world, by the other, by time, by a "system". Sometimes we are persecuted ... sometimes we are pursuers.

The old prison of Ushuaia is propitious to release the prey. We live with his sentence, his prison, his chain, his exhibition, his vulnerability.
Medito en esta criatura atrapada, ese otro que fue acechado, cazado y puesto tras unas rejas…
I meditate on
this creature trapped, that other being who was stalked and hunted behind bars...
No solo es el preso que habitó esta cárcel; es también el preso de ayer, el nativo que fue presentado a una corte como trofeo de exhibición y el de hoy atrapado en rejas invisibles y confortables.
It´s not only the prisoner who inhabit this prison, it is also the yesterday´s prisoner, the native that was presented to a court as an exhibited trophy, and the one todays trapped in invisible and comfortable bars.
