After the conversation with Laurie Frick I thought about Jaume Xifra, a Spanish artist who explores psychological mapping. I had the opportunity to participate in his project “Deu retrats de Barcelona” shown in 2002 in the gallery Metrònom. Nine people and me were selected by a team of anthropologist as a singular sample of Barcelona’s anonymous citizens. After taping our interviews on video Xifra translated the main traits of our personality into a language of symbols articulated through color and arranging. The result was a peculiar collection of portraits revealing our interior, here is mine:
