Black and white digital video of a sequence of all the numbers mentioned by Fidel Castro in a speech for a school opening, with recording of the voice of Castro saying those numbers in Spanish as they appear on the screen.
Censored in Cuba: No Reason given. A video projection of a numerical series changes according to the soundtrack with statistical figures (respecting the order of the original source) used by Fidel Castro in a single speech.
This work could finally be exhibited in September 2019, as part of a retrospective exhibition of the artist whose theme was the figure of Fidel Castro. The exhibition was titled "This is not a tribute" in the La Acacia Gallery, Havana.
This is a sequence of numbers that appear on the screen as the soundtrack pronounces the same numbers in the voice of Fidel Castro. In the Revolution Square, Havana, they are statistical data uttered by Castro in a single speech at the inauguration of the school year 2003-2004.
