Plaster, wood, iron, acrovinyl paint, chalk, gravel, oil,
paper boats, audio mix. Installation, variable dimensions.

This installation takes as its starting point Article 102 of the National Constitution, which establishes the right to education. The viewer is invited to enter an enclosed space reminiscent of a classroom, where sounds characteristic of these environments are reproduced, and the view is delimited by walls painted in two shades of green with a pattern of chalk lines. In the center, a desk inspired by the design of oil schools allows the audience to sit; in its drawer are liters of oil holding a series of small paper boats.
The piece questions the modes of knowledge transmission and our relationship with nature, approached from an oil-related educational model aimed at training future generations to continue production and technology in support of industrial development. In this context, nature has been sacrificed in the name of a technocratic model that is now obsolete and failed. My own educational experience at a model school for the oil industry, located on the shore of a lake now polluted and toxic from oil exploitation, inspires and shapes this work.
