Using as a starting point the story “Continuidad de los parques” (The Continuity of Parks) by Argentine writer Julio Cortázar, in which two stories are united with the same ending, two versions of the same landscape are superimposed and continued by Uruguayan artists Gilberto Bellini and Carmelo Rivello, with only two allowed variations: the point of view and the color temperature.
