Ships in a Crate
The drawing shows a ship sailing on the open sea and warm waters. The eight passengers of the boat not only share a destiny, but also a state of mental disorder. Said common characteristic is La Locura. They have embarked on a journey to the land of fools. The promised land of the insane. That place where everything happens “in reverse”. They are all hanging in an inverted position and upside down. It represents the one that is crooked, the one that is oriented in the opposite direction, an unequivocal sign of illness. In addition, the bodies hang next to the posts or masts of the ship, and supported by the feet/hands, from a bar to which they are clinging with apparent normality, and which are similar to those used by nocturnal birds, or primates, which precisely they cultivate an unusual custom to obtain rest or repose. The madman is associated with misery, or the miserable, symbolized barefoot. The madman was forbidden to enter the church. They were expelled by the church, and at the same time assisted by it, in a similar way to the marginalized, the excluded and the poor, the prostitutes, the condemned, drunkards, atheists, slaves and others of dubious morality. Each of these eight passengers presents different crazy profiles. All of them very present in Chilean society. Each mast carries a pennant, which contains a moon, to flag the territory of the "lunatics". From left to right I will describe it:
