Migrations We Are

Migrations We Are is one of the chapters in a series of twelve poetic essays titled Si, Dodecalogue, which is dedicated to timeless heroes. If the stories of the cities become those of everyone inhabiting them, the only way to build one’s identity remains the Imaginary. Therefore, revealing in filigree her socio-cultural fabric, an Argentinian-Montrealer artist reacts to the brilliance of her time through what she paints, films, and writes in different languages. This chapter is dedicated to Pierre Allard, visual artist, and Marcelin François, beneficiary attendant.

Ariel

When Ariel was just 33, his legs were shredded by an industrial dough mixer in Mendoza, Argentina. He became a living embodiment of the ongoing duel between man and machine. From that point on, he began to rediscover the meaning of freedom: to rebuild his broken identity, keep his family together and design his own prosthetic legs. Following Ariel for 10 years from the time of the accident, director Laura Bari has created an intimate and metaphorical portrait of Ariel’s newfound transhumanity, juxtaposing his daily life with dreamlike inner worlds—and pushing the boundary between the real and the imaginary.
