Before the Invisible 3
Digital Art and Watercolor
In this work, we present images I have taken using a scanner table. Rubbing my head on the scanner glass, I copied my face several times, stretching it, kneading it and twisting it. The members were added or deleted provoking disfigurements with the intention of creating “volatile” images, which go dissipating, mixing with or deconstructing my face. Random motions were made observing the machine scanning time, with no control over the final outcome of the image, bringing about these accidents mentioned by Francis Bacon. After that I started adding or subtracting choices, making cuts, adding layers of drawings or watercolors particularly aiming at determining sensations.
My work is placed in this context, in this state of suspension. We are vulnerable, we have no control over our lives, our body will soon disintegrate. These are the manners of sensitivity I organize.
