The hand of history installation was motivated by the memories of my childhood as an xx-century student and the changes in the dynamics of learning after the development of the internet, as well as by my interest in Art as a way to explore, accumulate and transmit human knowledge. This immersive participatory project signals how important it is for local communities to acquire knowledge of their particular past in relation to broader global history. The Installation focus on a critical dialogue with the western version of Universal History as a set of crucial events and influential personalities that occur in a rational, linear, consecutive, and consistent progression, ignoring in many cases cultural, racial, ecological, and gender factors.
