Soñé que revelabas (Bravo) belongs to Uslé’s best-known family of works, which originated in 1997 and is ongoing. The systematic brushstrokes that fill the painting’s surface are guided by the artist’s pulse, serving as a transcript of real time through a filmstrip-like recording of the artist’s own heartbeat. The painting, as material and action, also incites reflection on geographical borders. Soñé que revelabas (Bravo) references Río Bravo, one of the natural boundaries between Mexico and the United States.
