“Most of our life is subject to a paroxysmal reproduction of consumer object, art must be included in this context, for extract from that little difference among the other simultaneously acts between levels of repetition. “

The video work ‘DIFFERENT BY’ is a reflection about the outsourcing and economic-geographical location with all the consequences; a simulation that just play with the grammar of the game, engages an almost painful to hear of this shift- migration and relocation. A large map, 3 x 2 meters, without names of countries and places only the lines that demarcate boundaries invented by man to sort the places and cultures.In a path that is BY (someone) TOWARDS, (a place) TO (reach, subdue, exploit, modify), a place sometimes differs from what the clichés make us think. Similarly the ancient game AM SALAM or game of bell, skipping a single participant trampling several areas of the Mediterranean basin by running every time on a euro zone that will win. Similar to the stock exchange, money flows migrate in a way unknown to most of the population that understands property without apparently to influence these movements. In a mood that repeats itself depleted resources and culture of a place where the back end is only the dust.
