Una casa bajo aguacero: Construcciones míticas en Noche de agua de Sergio Mansilla

In Sergio Mansilla Torres's first book, Noche de agua (1986), a poetic vision is inaugurated whose vital framework is rooted in the waters surrounding the islands of Chilo.The intersection of historical time and mythological discourse building a language that integrates the concept of ancestors and tradition.The notion of space is symbolized by a houseboat that navigates diverse waters, which can be interpreted as representing different periods of life, including childhood and youth, as well as historical time, archetypal beliefs and rituals.This house is notable for its ability to transcend the confines of temporality, navigating the maritorium in a manner that symbolizes a renewal of the poetic home it acknowledges as its heritage.
