Coral reefs are the largest living structure on the planet, highly evolved from symbioses, which form this rich and diverse habitat where all shapes, colours and types contribute to something so brilliant that it is visible from space.
The visual creations began with the shape from a coral piece that I wear around my neck. I saw my mother and grandmother wearing small shapes and for me it became a symbol, a link to daily life, rituals, nature, our environment and the way in which I relate to them or they relate to me, it has always been my journey.
This almost surreal structure creates the unexpected, dissects movement or deciphers ritual. It creates elements from another world.
It extracts an image from reality, from rituals and movements that go unnoticed. This is what I see, not just a recording, but an evolution of another form. We forget that our vision of the world is shaped not only by sight, but also by our bodily and sensory experience of the world.
These works speak of solitude or connection, but together they merge to form an affective meditation on how change alters and shapes, ways of visualising how we adapt and remain, blending into our environment as part of a greater whole.
This is ultimately a series of visual notes or a translation of my own cosmology.
