I work mainly with performance, text, sculpture, and raw materials such as stone. My research explores the body as memory and as a threshold of transformation: a body that resists, that repeats, that endures, and that, through the performative act, seeks to transmit what cannot be expressed in words. I often draw inspiration from everyday objects, tools of weight, rhythm and repetition, that carry within them both physical effort and symbolic charge. Through these objects and gestures, I reflect on the endurance of the body, the persistence of habits, and the silent memory inscribed in simple yet profound actions. Today, I wish to take my research to another level: to displace it, to open it to other contexts, and to confront it with new spaces, encounters, and perspectives.
