LOVE ME
(2022)
Love me is the continuation of Fuck me . These two versions and the previous
ones are part of the project Recordar para vivir, based on building an endless
work about my life in which I am my own object of research.
I wrote Love with a friend, Marín Flores Cárdenas. The work was created
secretly, during the pandemic, while the theaters and everything in Buenos
Aires was closed.
Yes, Fuck me and then Love me. First fuck me, then let's talk about love.
Sex is body. Love is not so much body as time.
Or maybe love is a body holding time.
The work is a solo piece that deals with the violence that I carry inside. At the
same time, the text is rewritten for each occasion. It was premiered in March
2022 in Buenos Aires as a farewell to the country that I left a few months ago.
The version that is presented in each territory brings together the confessions
of a foreigner, a fugitive. We migrants become addicted to escaping.
Our identity is the path because the country we left no longer exists.
