La Libertad solo existe en la lucha por la libertad (Freedom only exists in the Seek for Freedom)

1988
Iron, wood, oil

The sentence written in this little work must have come from some anarchist literature I was reading at the time, Landauer or Kropovkin. The meaning has been with me all my life and is present in everything I write now. The word 'freedom' has been replaced over the years by 'truth', 'justice', 'knowledge' or 'art', but the principle has continued to work in the same way. The first thing it implies is that there is no definitive freedom, justice or art, and that if you want any of them you can never rest. The lamp is always burning, an oil candle like the Romans used twenty centuries ago.
