Topographer

Topographer 2015 Directed by Jorge Méndez Blake Topógrafo

Marking of a series of points between the National Library of Mexico and the University Museum of Contemporary Art

Action documented on video in which the artist explores and traces an alternative route, the shortest between the two buildings of the Biblioteca Nacional de México and the Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo, with a straight line through the semi-wild zone of vegetation and lava that divides them. To build this line, the artist marks the territory over which he advances using instruments typical of topography.
