In a sometimes sarcastic and willingly provocative manner, Boclé questions the blockages and circulations between present and past, individual narrative and history. His work is a poetic and political approach of the contemporary world marked by «a chaotic Us, the Holly Marchandise, the migrations, exile, exclusion, the exchange, the loss»(1). He brings closer together his childhood in his « immeasurable island »(1), until the age of 15, the experience of being taken away from his native land, and history, which is the history of his continent, America, the history of the «divisions of the world, in Valladolid, Berlin, Versailles, Yalta, or Davos»(1)
