Physical_Metamorphosis is an artistic research project that explores the body as both subject and space through drawing, photography, and image manipulation. Starting from the study of personal shadows and anatomical forms, the project evolves into an investigation of internal metamorphosis—where the body is reimagined as a layered, dynamic landscape. The artistic process and body of work presented here is divided into three main areas: Inside Metamorphosis, Outside Metamorphosis, and Body Shadows. Inside Metamorphosis explores the inner structures and depths of the human body through clinical imagery, such as gastroscopies and colonoscopies. Outside Metamorphosis, on the other hand, is a process of mechanizing chiaroscuro and the shadows of my own body—elements that are ultimately synthesized in the third and final part, Body Shadows. Body Shadows reflects my direct relationship with photography and highlights its fundamental role in both my artistic research and creative practice.

Surge como objeto tridimensional, como espaço reflexivo e relacionalinter-espécies. Um biombo, que pode nos servir como elemento de separação entre espaços, de privação; quer como um objeto que se articula no espaço, resultando em abrigo, em proteção de quem se encontra dentro, um espaço para meditar, para se co-conectar consigo mesmo, com o outro e com os cinco elementos.

This research explores the intersection of art and technology through the innovative use of the oscilloscope in musical composition and performance. Originally a tool for scientific and industrial applications, the oscilloscope’s ability to transform electrical signals into dynamic visual patterns offers a unique opportunity for audio-visual expression. This study is motivated by a fascination with the device’s aesthetic and philosophical potential, as well as its capacity to bridge sound and image, creating a multisensory artistic experience. The central research questions guiding this investigation are: How can the oscilloscope be incorporated into compositional practice? Can it function as both a compositional tool and a live performance instrument? Is integration with acoustic instruments feasible, and how does it operate within an ensemble context? Through a combination of historical-theoretical research and practical experimentation, this study researches how the oscilloscope can indeed serve as a tool for composition, a performative instrument, and a collaborative element in mixed acoustic-electronic ensembles. The findings highlight the oscilloscope’s potential to redefine traditional musical practices, offering new dimensions of creativity and interaction, bringing unexplored possibilities along with strict limits and challenges. This research contributes to the growing field of multimedia art, providing insights for composers and performers interested in exploring the translation of sound to image, and technology.

▲ The LGP Apartment as a Performative Box: Eroticism, Ritual, and Desire in Transit explores how a domestic space becomes a stage for embodied performance, blending elements of eroticism, ritualistic acts, and transient desires. This work investigates the intersections between personal and performative identities within the confines of an intimate environment, highlighting the transformative power of space in shaping human experience and creative expression. Oriented to the materialization of creative projects to make them productives. This exposition constitutes the first delivery of a broader research-creation process around the LGP method. It proposes a performative, erotic and ritual-based perspective on space, body, and desire. This fixed publication is intended as an archival moment within an ongoing constellation of artistic and psychoanalytic inquiries. Further works will unfold as complementary explorations. Published in parallel on Zenodo with DOI: [10.5281/zenodo.1562769] ▲ El departamento LGP como caja performativa: erotismo, ritual y deseo en tránsito explora cómo un espacio doméstico se convierte en un escenario para la performance corporal, integrando elementos de erotismo, actos rituales y deseos transitorios.

"My present is more than I remember" explores the entanglements of word and image and their role in constructing memory and identity. Drawing on my four-year practice at the KABK, it analyses the methods I’ve developed and examines the interrelation between memory, photography, and writing. Delving into personal memories and intergenerational connections within my family, I seek to understand how inherited experiences and stories shape my personal and artistic identity, guided by the act of weaving as a concept and a material. Furthermore, the paper examines the existential role of collective and familial memory in shaping Jewish and German-Jewish identity. Using a range of texts and styles, including sociological and art-historical theories, experimental diary entries, poems, and personal anecdotes, I explore the parallels between the construction of memory and the construction of photographs. Just as photography can never represent the essence of a person, memory will never be able to represent the full truth of the past.
