In Punta de plata. Bestiario,Juan José Arreola and Hector Xavier manage to forge with words and strokes, with lines and silences, two esthetic proposals in which writing and drawing coexist, intertwine, dialogue and illuminate themselves mutually. Both authors expose the animal world of which humans come from and make us feel owners of culturally constructed senses that differentiates us in as much as they liken us to them… Language, memory and art are the attribute that distinguish us, so it would seem the artists say with their senses in flight.
