Arid Rumors in Humid directions is part of the artist's iconography research in the archives of European maritime expeditions carried out in the 16th century.

Attracted by the production of imagery and the myths of colonization, Estrada produces cartographies in which only ornamentations and the representations of waterways are kept. In a second superimposed map, this time she marks the path of the rivers that lead to Ciudad de los Césares - a mythological Patagonian city that, no conqueror has been able to access.
