Catarina Dias: Mamute
In the English language, the word mammoth qualifies the incommensurable. Curiously, the native peoples of Siberia believed the colossal extinct being behind the word was a water spirit who dwelled underground. They believed it only to visit the surface at night and to die instantly whenever spotted by someone. Because of this, men lived in the expectation of seeing one, but only knew of the traces they left behind, clearly visible by the first light of morning. These traces they saw at dawn, we can find throughout the work of Catarina Dias, in the translation of this unspeakable force, named and drawn, that shines light into our own condition.nion with and acknowledgement of oneself.
