In Sanskrit, Nayan (नयन) means “eye” and evokes a poetic dimension of perception and vision. This term also gives title to a song created by my Nepalese partner in 2015, Sandeep, while I, with my camera, sought to activate the void in the Chilean landscape, without questioning whether I had the right to materialize something foreign to my condition as a subject, thus perpetuating the privilege that sustained me. Ten years later, I revisit and denounce these acts, exploring how language, both visual and verbal, reveals our limitations and the invisible structures of power that shape us.
