In this work, I start from a found object, which are the phone calls made through a repeater from a foreign country. The aim of these calls is to generate false news about the figures of power in Cuba. The island has always been a focal point in the geopolitics of the region, attracting the attention of foreign powers seeking to exert their dominance. The conception of this work arises from having been an accidental victim of this unconventional warfare operation. For this reason, I am interested in adopting a dystopian aesthetic in order to exaggerate the decay we are experiencing.
