Archive of a Body, 2025-on going
This project is temporarily on hold.
For a new performance piece, I created a new series of glass sculptures at MAKE Eindhoven. These sculptures will serve as “partners” for performers who will work with them through contact improvisation.
The design of the sculptures stems from previously developed costumes, designed for the torso and made from collected plastic packaging material. This design forms the starting point for the translation to glass. The transition from plastic to glass marks an important development in my practice and the execution of this new work. Whereas the plastic costumes were light, ephemeral and dependent on my physical presence in a performance; the wearable glass sculptures take on a fixed, autonomous form. They can exist independently and retain their expressiveness, even outside a performative live context. This shift opens up new possibilities for presentation – from performance to sculpture, from temporary to permanent, from live to installation.
