The Soul Vacating the Body

THE PASSAGE TO THE ARTERLIFE

My creative process took the role of a scientific archeologue who digs soil like he digs in it soul, trying to understand its own perishment. My starting point about biological life is death. from plant, animal to human who die, the trace of the body remain. It still have the same shape, the same material constituents. It can no longer grow, move or maintain itself. its start to decay. Something seems to have left it, the life force, the breath, the spirit the soul, the vital factor. The series of art question matter and the flow of the Immaterial, the animate and the inanimate.

'The Soul Vacating the Body', is a series of work that reunites different forms of art and extends the performative experience towards sculpture, painting and installation to create permanent artifacts. The creative process tend to captures and freezes an ephemeral event into physical formalization. From human scale experimentation to its materialistic miniaturization. I explore the presence and absence of the body and question the duality of sacrality and desacralization in nature representation. With in one hand the sacred in performance with the reintegration of spitituality, the application of ritualistic forms and the elevation of the formal body. In the another hand the desacralization of nature in its minimalist representation and  manipulation as an acquisition of property.Soil is a mark-making process in which i question temporality and ephemerality.Experimenting on the capacity of its propriety to hybrid, mutate and transform, I extend traditional painting into sculptural relief canvas. The process of repetitive manipulation and precise action that filters, dries and fixes to sculpt;transforms the breathing material into a suffocated rigid Skin,revealing man domination and it's control over it's own nature.
