Visionary is a performance in which the artist embodies a soldier or watchman obsessed with security. During the Forum Adonis Flores Betancourt remained dressed in camouflage military uniform and uses two hygienic paper rolls as binoculars. This work of surveillance, looking after the movement of any person that can seem suspicious, can be watched in a video installed in the exhibition.
