Erroneous Process
An incorrect procedure's imprint is recorded.(part of CnaΨ installation)
I reshape my body, covering my mouth completely with plasticine. This masking symbolizes wholeness, in the expression of the visual language, as a communication form. I m trying to dig up and picture the space of the unspoken, where language has no longer access. In the next step, with the help of my colleague John, we attempt to create a realistic mold of my own face. Every detail has and will be reproduced in the final sculptural installation (C-na-Ψ). But the elements of chance andpreconception intersect, revealing a new perspective. Shekin and Rafael rush to help. All four of us become witnesses and protagonists of the same experiment. What are the motivations for one to persist against all odds when planning falls apart? What happens when one finds oneself powerless under the authority of others? How do we perceive and interpret the need of another and how do we interpret the help that is provided? Questions that recur throughout art history and are documented to map the neuro-synapses.
