The artist talks about his second apperarance at the Festival. He comments on the similarities and differences between the videos Mira, featured in the 15th Videobrasil, and Brisas, awarded an honorable mention in the 18th edition. According to him, the two pieces share a poetical and political connection. Ramírez expounds on his conception of memory, which is featured in his work, and its relationship with physical and geographical spaces and cities. He draws a parallel between cities and people, with their different personalities and moods, both made from different layers containing something that does not allow itself to be forgotten. He also speaks on the importance of creating works that are accessible to all, even the “uninitiated” in the arts, and the role of residencies in art creation.
