About this exposition

Across diverse mediums and form, the ‘human’ body, however transient, remains my main subject of events. What is seen, in the eyes of my mind, take place on surface, lens, material, and morph with one another, with the living moving body, disfiguring each other and reconfiguring themselves after consumption. Embodied and disembodied appearances, reflect on the visceral and urgent presence of the human, live, body. At the start, the notion of mirror: a constant ever-changing image that is formed and deformed as each breath brings life to the body. Different media such as drawing, photography, printmaking, painting, voice, word, sound and video, interrelate with as output a universe of heterogeneous appearances, each with a common denominator: movement of the body and movement of the soul, between the gestural expression of charcoal drawing, the analogue and digital/post-produced sounds, still and moving images, to the carefully crafted and re-elaborated copper plates delivering prints. At the moment these are called Side Effects, each one a bi-product of the previous step in the process of feedback loop. “anthropomorphs”; two dimensional images derived from the superimposition of drawing and moving body (drawing>photo>painting>print) “hesitations”; the more visceral exploration of embodied voice-movement integration, exploring frequencies and resonances of vocal output rooted within the organs of the body “ghosts”; are the anthropomorphs restituted a third dimension. Sculptures rendered independent to move again, suspended in space, relating to nothing but to their history and to one another. “multiplicity”; anonymous portraits overlapped and stop-motion animated, searching to grasp the ever-changing nature of (one)(multiple)self, faced with memory and its loss, ancient stranger twins, imagined encounters or the union of multiplicity as one.
