TRANSMISSION is a genealogy of the spacecraft, following the history of the worships of the sky. It is a drama in three acts, oscillating between history, mythology and fiction looking for the statue's connection to the machine. Following the traces left behind within archaic statues and rituals, where it finds a connection to the modern spacecraft. With a poetic-mythological voice it speaks through three different spaces in time. Connecting the sacrificial rite with the strive upwards, it asks what is seen in the image of technology in the traces of that which survived from afar, in what is close to us.
