In Extension Galindo shows us the situation of all those dead women whose bodies, again as mere remains, were never recognized or claimed by anyone. For this piece, the artist obtains some strands of hair from the deceased that she herself and other volunteers have incorporated into their own bodies, into their own hair, in the form of hair extensions that function as a wake-up call, as an extension for memory and the memory of those devastated lives.
