Collections

Collections are not supposed to be finished. The  

pleasure lies in the gaps, open ends, in addition, and in  

finding ways to present them creating different readings  

and meanings. In this piece, the body is an archive being  

activated and expanded continuously. ‘Collections’ is a  

body in expansion, one that is constantly remaking and  

reorganizing itself, assimilating and producing new  

relations architecture, individual and collective spaces. It  

slides through temporal and emotional layers, activating  

and creating new physical memories, resisting a passive  

deposition of influences.
