Strange Fruit (Ceuta)
2006, Single slide projection, metal and paper

The title of the work is taken from the song Strange Fruit most famously performed by Billie Holiday. The song condemns the racism in United States, particularly the lynching and burning of African Americans that was prevalent in the South at the time when it was written, in 1937.
The movement both in time and geography that the work suggest (to the year 2006 in the south of Spain), connects the contemporary development of fences and borders to the origin of the song. Pointing at a new and at the same time old form of politics, between the different historical moments.
