Multi-person sculptures activated by the human body embedded within them, which gives them tone. Performative sculptures guide us to the beginning, exploring movement possibilities while invoking a new form of collectivity. They settle between multiplicity and individuality. Everyone at once. One after another. Two at a time. Third time’s the charm. Everything disappears. Two exhibitions in one. One ends, the other begins the moment the performers step out of the sculptures. At that point, the sculptures become autonomous objects, carrying within them the experience of collaboration. A choreographic map imprints itself on the floor.
[3] Multiplicity present in each sculpture, manifested through levels of movement and the individuals activating it.
[1] The individual as a catalyst for group movement, a constant physical presence of matter within the object.
