My work is the result of my ongoing research on the processes of perception. Invisible forces and intentions that manifest to be perceived through the senses, and that make themselves known in the visible world, through form and the trace of its movement and activity. It´s about a notion of a dynamic and relative vision that underlines the impossibility of establishing a unique and absolute point of view, thus provoking the gaze and encouraging the appropriation of a potentially new way of seeing.
