This compendium of letters revolves around sexuality and creativity. The author reports situations of harassment, rape and other issues related to the womb. Generally, these types of situations are kept secret because of the guilt that victims feel. The recapitulation process is a technique to lighten the conflict and probably assist the acceptance process of someone who has gone through similar experiences. Victorieux presents worldly stories, articles of appreciation of works of art around sexuality, and also some healing suggestions; mainly accepting that help is needed, and meditations. It is an exercise in humility to accept that we are vulnerable and to continue loving each other."XIX. Solar Sphinx" presents the universe of Vamp Iris Atma Ra among song lyrics, delivery dates for" The Sphinx ", eroticism, the creation and dissemination of the" Kundalini Manifesto ", several allies, a few birds, Meleagridinae, anonymous and some antagonists... Vamp could be considered a transformer of consciences, or simply a survivor of the multitudinous place that is Mexico City.For almost three decades, Vamp Iris has built her identities in performance, visual and performing art in which she has contextualized her work concerning activism and various social issues. Whereby it is combined with artistic research, this is one of its main qualities to cause astonishment. She states that "In the performance process I have drunk from different sources, social sciences, spiritual practices and community experiences." Her work usually combines performance, fiction and documentary facts, in what she calls: perfofaction."I build my performance identities in a way similar to what a writer draws or writes on a paper the essence and character of each character: I write a life story, favourite colour, fashion style, profession, religion, qualities, impulse of life, the sources of suffering, the virtue of the evil of each character, duality that when transcending it always allows sharing a teaching ", -affirms the visual artist.Vamp is related to the struggle we all have between chaos and order. She is a character that clashes with the ideas of the people, who when finding her in the street with her daring outfit, get a blow to their ideas, she moves the common image they have in their mind of how a woman should be."I have been building my performance identities for a long time, at some point I realized that the internal structure of my work reflects the theological knowledge of the Seven Rays. The qualities of the seventh ray, which define Vamp are: Grace, Precision, Orderly Beauty, Skill, Dignity, Attention to detail, Order, Military Method, Splendor." -says Vamp. She, also known as "The Sphinx", is more than a character, an alter ego or heteronym, Vamp has become the reflection and creation of a lifestyle; in a testimony that seduces us in her timeless drama.About The AuthorRa'al Ki Victorieux, CDMX, 1971.
