Umbilical Cordon II, 2016

Watercolor on paper

    

'Umbilical Cordon' is a fictional body of work that takes its inspiration from biological evolution, mutation and anatomy within the 'in utero' environment of all living forms. From plants, insects to mans, this 'Womb Sphere' reflects the inner space and state of embryo through its  gestational age before birth. This thematics of exploration include drawings, numerous stuffed sculptures, installations and  filmed performances that offers a distorted vision of the human body. Through aliens form figures that altogether transcend genders and push the limits of what is human,  sculptures reunite  sexual chromosomes that underscoring the overlap of Mal and female anatomy.  Where mutation and sexual anomaly occurs as a non identified object to examine, specimens are displayed through space like echographs observation in the placenta. This universal  'Umbilical cordon' refer to the navel string, the roots that supplies nutriments and feeds unborn organism. What would happen if that string of life collapse? What would happen if the placenta of the mother earth core get infected?

ABOUT

THE CYCLE OF LIFE,2020

  Fine Art video (8.17m) 

'The Cycle of Life' (2020) make allusion to the skin of the earth in interface with hydrosphere, atmosphere and biosphere. Behind it's own biological Matrix, the earth-core had been polluted by a bacteria during the germination of the seed of life.  Inspired by the bio-anatomical world process, the film dissect  seven phases that reflect the cycle of life. From birth to death, the macroscopic vision observe the ovulation of a seed, the formation of a larves inside a cocoon, the development of an embryo, the reoccurrence stage within a golden beehive, and finally the metamorphic journey  of a butterfly, flying to death.

                           FETAL VOID, 2019

                           Live & filmed performance 

Filmed in a dome-shaped structure designed by Wolfgang Buttress,

'Fetal Void' is a public live performance of 3 hours that represent the movement of a phetus inside a womb in it's process of infection. From a contextual point of view trought this spherical void hollowed from the centre which allows visitors to enter, I was interested in the abscence & presence of the public within my filmed performance. In that perspective, I wanted the audiance to freely vehiculate around my phetal representation as if they were enterying,infiltring and infecting the placenta of 'Mother earthcore'. When this performative interaction occured between the architectural space, spectators and myself it merge into a symbolic Virus.

                       Sculpture, performance, installation

               

The 'Cocoon' is a performative sculpture that exist in fusion with the human body. Made of metal and resins, the sculpture is part of a series that  hybrid in various forms and textures. In the 'Cycle of life' 2020 filmed performance, the sculpture serve to represent the formation of a larve inside a cocoon before becoming a butterfly, flying to death.
