About the work
Cuando recibí tu mensaje, te confieso pensé que era una broma. Estaba escrito en papel blanco con letras negras enormes. Limpié y ajusté mis lentes; leí la nota varias veces para asegurarme que leía bien. De tanto leerla, se achicaron las letras y desaparecieron; quedando mis manos de cenizas con mis lentes.

When I received your message I have to confess I thought it was a joke. It was written in white paper with huge black lettering. I cleaned and adjusted my glasses; I read the note several times to ensure I was reading well. After so many readings, the letters shrunk and disappeared, leaving my hands ashes with my glasses.
