The poems and paintings of my narrative City of Red Horizons are
related to the seven years of dictatorship in Argentina from 1976
until 1983 when 30,000 people, most of them youth who believed
in justice, were captured, tortured, and killed by the government.
Dismembering or annihilating families was one of the military’s
goals. My narrative poem and art works tell how the
methodology of state terrorism broke down my family, as well
as all the thousands of families who endured similar fate.
Through these pages I want to raise my voice in order to alert
people about what happened in my country, as well as in other
Latin American countries, for such atrocities never to happen
again.
