All things change, nothing is extinguished.
There is nothing in the whole world which
is permanent.
Everything flows onward; all things are
brought into being with a changing nature;
the age themselves glide by in constant
movement.
Ovid, Metamorphoses
Ana Mendieta, Body Tracks, (1982)
For the performance of Body Tracks, Ana dipped her hands and arms into a mixture of animal blood and paint and made ‘drawings’ on three pieces of cloth by pressing her arms over them.
