En la colecci\u00f3n del MOMA entre otras.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00abThe palms of Lana Turner\u2019s hands were full of scars; the technique she used in order to achieve melodrama was to tighten her fists, digging her fingernails into them until she began to cry. Day after day, soap opera actresses smear Vick\u2019s Vaporub into their eyes in order to cry. The effect of these false tears are the tears of the public. In Devil in the Flesh<\/em> we see the camera\u2019s tricks, and even so the action seems dramatic. This piece once again exemplifies my fascination with the artificial: the fabricated emotions; the Christian looking for pain in order to live out Passion; the discomfort of the everyday melodrama; the emptiness that defeats everything. So, as in all my work, I am obsessed with lying\u2019s various disguises. It doesn\u2019t interest me to watch that which is not hidden. Formally, my camera documents\u2014looking directly without shame. The possibility of the narrative levels intrigues me in the montage. My camera work is cinema verite, and my montage work cinema mentira. My intent is an emotionally borderless language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In Devil in the Flesh<\/em>, I look at myself in the mirror, but through the desolate hole of a mask, the circle is broken by the sharp biting angle of a telephone that keeps ringing. I take up the spoon again. There is no form of escape from everyday boredom. Every grammatical punctuation constitutes a search for a break in reality or an intensified state.\u00bb<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u2014Ximena Cuevas, 1999<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" En la colecci\u00f3n del MOMA entre otras. \u00abThe palms of Lana Turner\u2019s hands were full of scars; the technique she<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":21705,"template":"","meta":[],"movie_genre":[239,869],"movie_tag":[286,1161,871],"class_list":["post-21707","movie","type-movie","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","movie_genre-video","movie_genre-videocreation","movie_tag-286","movie_tag-comisariados-2018","movie_tag-festival-2018-en"],"yoast_head":"\n
