The first opportunity to present REMOTO – Más allá de toda duda razonable the film work made by the artist following a long direct experience in Chile between 2015 and 2022: happenings, dialogues, still images and archival documents alternate between intimate narratives and broader visions of the Pacific Ocean that continually question, not only through the voices of the protagonists, the apparent stability and mania for control over creation that human beings today believe they possess. A portrait that Di Tillo makes of the earthquake, without punctual and chronological references to a specific seismic event, with the intention of shifting attention away from the more dramatic condition of instability, destruction, death and reconstruction that an earthquake brings with it and directing the gaze toward the potential semantic openness to which these upheavals land.
