Estudio sobre el Hecho y la Fragilidad / Study on Fact and Fragility

“Lo que hace de la deformación un destino es que el cuerpo tiene una relación necesaria con la estructura material: no solamente ésta se enrolla a su alrededor, sino que él debe rejuntarla y disiparse en ella, y para eso pasar por o dentro de aquellos instrumentos-prótesis, que constituyen pasos y estados reales, físicos, efectivos; sensaciones y no del todo imaginaciones.” Gilles Deleuze. Francis Bacon. Lógica de la sensación.

Performance-Intallation built with magnets, lenses, hair, motors, using body presence also as a material, pointing out the fragility of human kind and reminding us body is also submitted to the laws of nature.
