Your image will be erased, but the wind will never carry it away is the first anthology of texts by artist Isaac Olvera related to his performative work in Mexico City between 2013 and 2020. In recent years, Olvera has developed a powerful series of performances that link the body with text. Through archival work and editing, this book provides a physical space for the artist's practice, allowing it to be accompanied, revived, and reiterated, dislocating the notion of performance as an exclusively bodily intervention that is consumed ephemerally. The transition from text to performance and from performance to text emerges from the construction of Isaac's personal memory, the presentation of newspaper notes, exquisite corpses, letters, and calligrams, which recount the events of Olvera's life: what remains once the room closes and the light goes out, but the wind does not carry it away.
