PHENOMENOLOGY

My works and phisicalities need to be experienced rather than being perceived or seen. I am more interested in what is the act of becoming than in what is established, in the negotiation of the “happening” rather than in the fragility of the statement of “being”. I do not choreograph my physicality. I condition the bodies to produce physicality. It is not created and setted but it is constantly appearing. The physicality I am exploring is shapeless but it still has its own identity. It does not end in form but gets defined and becomes concrete through dealing with the actions, conditions, instructions and obstructions that create it. A narrative without beginning and end. It is a gesture.

Agamben definition of gesture:

“…Gesture is that dimension of language that is not exhausted in any communication of meaning and that in this way marks the point at which language appears in its more capacity to communicate. (…) Without identity, defined by nothing other than its existence in language as irreducible, absolute, POTENTIALITY”…

It is also one of the weak points of my work. My “physicalities” are normally exposed to disappear, they are ephemeral and used to be resistant to operate always in the same way. Once they are chosen, they become independent from me and then are as if I would not be able to direct them anymore. I don’t want to improve my strategies to be able to set material. I am not interested in hunting for shapes and putting them together. I would like to be able learn how to create more and more conditions and contexts to be able to construct a clear environment where the physicality could habitate in its entire authenticity and fragility without risking the presence of the total work. I need to play more with composition.
