Lina Buso is an artist-archivist and a historian without temporal barriers. Her work recontextualizes Latin American political and cultural events within a playful and mestizo world. She juxtaposes the force of events with the satire in their presentation, revealing a subtle sarcasm, both towards herself and our history. Irony permeates the entire exhibition, especially her "Tower of Babel" series. In Buso's world, the failed project of the tower is not seen as negative; instead, she celebrates it with playful and ironic maximalism. The idiomatic breakdown of the tower is visually expressed in a proliferation of images that inundate the structure with "chicha" graffiti, helium balloons, and war cannons. In Buso's imagery, this visual diversity reactivates our memory and enhances our plurality of voices and languages.

Lina Buso es una artista-archivista y una historiadora sin límites temporales. Su obra recontextualiza eventos políticos y culturales latinoamericanos en un mundo lúdico y mestizo. Contrapone la fuerza de los acontecimientos con la sátira en su presentación, lo que revela un sutil sarcasmo, tanto hacia ella misma como hacia nuestra historia. La ironía impregna toda la exposición, especialmente su serie "Torre de Babel". En el mundo de Buso, el proyecto fallido de la torre no es visto como negativo, sino que lo celebra con un maximalismo jocoso e irónico. El quiebre idiomático de la torre se manifiesta visualmente en una proliferación de imágenes, que inundan la estructura con grafitis "chicha," globos de helio y cañones de guerra. En el imaginario de Buso, esta diversidad visual reactiva nuestra memoria y realza nuestra pluralidad de voces e idiomas.
