The publication accompanying the exhibition Elogio al disparate documents an email conversation between the artist and Puerto Rican writer Claudia Becerra. In this dialogue, they exchange thoughts on the concept of nonsense and jitanjáforas, allowing themselves to drift in a spirit of free association while resisting the urge to impose form or meaning on everything. At the center of this exchange are excerpts and poems by Latin American authors such as Clarice Lispector, Alfonso Reyes, Alejandra Pizarnik, Mariano Brull, Francisco Matos Paoli, César Vallejo, José Carlos Mariátegui, Martín Adán, and Bobby Capó. Their texts are presented as a removable book within the book, shaping the artistic intervention.
