Through the analysis of three of his works, corresponding to three different stages of his artistic life, it is pretended to examine the way in which Argentinian artist Xul Solar invigorated art spaces to unite them and work in an intersection, specially between poetry/language and plastic art. Activation of the word is seen and considered in a pictorial space, but also the way these words and these images sought to be a correlate of the artist’s deepest interests.

This series is made up of fragments of a larger work called Migration in which I conducted an investigation into the lives of ve migrant women who lived in Stellenbosch, Cape Town, South Africa during the years 2014 and 2015, we all had 29 years and came to Stellenbosch under di erent circumstances. Our constant encounters partially revealed the stories of their lives through conversations and interviews. At the site of each of our meetings I made portraits, taking into account the areas where they wanted to be photographed, likewise, their life stories led me to a number of places and spaces that I also photographed. This way we got together a photographic story that talks about the collective space of a region such as Stellenbosch, Cape Town, as well as spaces and intimate moments in their lives. In this photographic essay, you can read these stories randomly without losing sense, giving it a double sense that enriches the narrative; paragraphs of di erent life stories are interwoven with images achieving a single story.
