On the Road is a reinterpretation project of spaces and objects based on the homonymous book by Jack Kerouac. The last part of the book written in 1951 recounts the trip the Beats did to Mexico City through the Panamerican Highway –now Route 85. A pick-up was used –just like the Beats- to collect different obsolete objects from dumps in Route 85 and to carry them to other sites on the same Route. These objects were transformed into luminous sculptures using signaling material, and were then used to intervene Route 85, illuminating them with the headlights of the pick-up and photographing them with a large format film camera. The objects were taken out of their original context and installed in a new one and they were changed in their materiality trying to question our relation to objects, their meanings, connotations, and uses.
