"In the beginning was the Word". The Word exists and develops as a material of cultural syntax, being a tool of both theory and mental morals. As members of the society, we have to practice, a continuous dialectic on the speach, negotiating each time what is said.
By observing people in everyday life, we may realize how verbal information is ultimately imposed on behavior in a conscious or unconscious way. The ability of language to represent the world can be considered a transparent and innocent state. Nevertheless, the form of sovereign relations must always be taken into account.
The phrase presented at the MOMus-Experimental Arts Center dominates the outer wall of the entrance of the Diavata penitentiary.

As part of the Second Chance School of the Diavata penitentiary, a series of meetings took place with the part of the women's section, in a form of artistic and educational contact.
We managed to accomplish almost nothing from the prepared teaching schedule. The long meetings, despite the alternative proposals for redefining the daily program, ended up out of the pre-planned learning axis.
However, the AAGFSTV group (first letters of the participators) seems to have functioned internally by developing communication codes and reciprocal relations, despite the objectively short period of time. AAGFSTV decided to reverse the educational dipole between apprentice-instructor, organizing for the last day of their meeting a short duration, didactic presentation of each of the "learners" towards the institutionally alleged "instructor".
