The title is a non-idiomatic mash-up of Spanish that could be interpreted as \"Circle, kill yourself,\" or \"The circle that kills,\" referring to cycles of political violence and their justifications. The collection aims to subvert default assumptions about wars of aggression and colonialism through startling lyricism and word-associations, by turns tragic and farcical.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMatarse C?rculo includes 38 color plates which reveal the generative and evolutionary process of the texts and their origin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis project was conceived and produced in San Crist?bal de las Casas, Chiapas, Mexico, in 2022, with an old Olivetti typewriter.
