For Galileo (in no time, no space) is a performative installation and video work developed as a prelude to Here it’s always Monday, Thursday, Friday and Sunday. The piece draws on Agrippa’s Three Books of Occult Philosophy, collecting elemental correspondences—scents, colors, herbs, and planetary attributes—for Venus, Jupiter, the Moon, and the Sun, also known as Galileo’s planets.

A large-scale drawing was created through repetition and displacement: it began in my studio and continued on site, mapping the daily trajectories of the planets and phases of the Moon throughout the exhibition. I placed myself at the center of the drawing, using my body as scale and tool. Each day’s movement was added to the same surface, layering time into a single spatial trace.

A live camera transmitted the installation continuously to a webpage, allowing viewers in different time zones—especially in Mexico—to access the work remotely. This displacement across geography and temporal zones created a piece that existed in “no time and no space”—a transmission of memory, ritual, and planetary rhythm. The resulting video is a composite of all those days, collapsing them into one overlapping instant.

The project investigates how cosmic cycles and emotional time intersect, how memory accumulates through action, and how drawing, like scent, can function as a non-linear archival practice.
