Project questions:
How to transform the actual bullring into a primitive landscape?
What is behind a sacrifice?
Any sacrifice involves two things:
There is something to give and there is something expect to receive in return.
Someone has something and offer it for another thing that it does not have.
A sacrifice is an exchange, a transaction. An action awaiting reaction.
But, What happens if a sacrifice have not expected nothing to return?
What happens if any reaction is not expected?
When a sacrifice becomes voluntary and disinterested…
Does it become an act of transcendence or redemption?
Does such a type of sacrifice exist? I mean selfless sacrifice.
What if we think a project in which each of the parties involved gives something without asking anything in return?
Only trusting that this offering will contribute in something superior.
