TERRENE (2022-ongoing)
Collective experience with Urban Soil
TERRENE involves speculative geology and dialogical sculptural/installation work. In this practice I am interested in observing people's relation to urban anthropogenic soils in different social, cultural, historical and intercontinental contexts. The experimentr usually start with the gathering of soil from surroundings, enabling unlikely encounters among people, localities and matter. The material collected is available for the participants to freely model. They are invited to ‘encounter’ this soil, to feel it and interact with the different elements through process-oriented molding, dispensing guidelines, explanations or even spoken language in general. In some instances, the actions have been done together with children and have allowed subtitle and non-verbal discussions about territory, history, movement and sense of belonging. The actions are concluded with the rustic burning of the objects produced, mesmerically observing the vitality of matter in action, moving, melting, adapting and joining other bodies in its rhythm. When the material is cooled, there is always a surprise to observe its new configuration. Matter and participants meet again after a process of performativity and transformation. With this practice I look to embrace a dialogical formation of matter and entanglenment with urban , degraded and contaminated soils.
