With the accelerated growth of technology and its challenges, we have had to seek alternatives in living and working. Since the internet was already part of my process, it gave me courage to embrace change and transgression in ceramics.
Now, I want to animate it, give it movement — physical, apparent movement. I want to ensure visibility so it can be displayed online as a new, unpredictable experience. This excites me, because the greatest motivation is to break the rigidity of clay after burning, and to move it playfully, thinking of creation and audacity, intersections, contacts, and frictions throughout the process.
The goal is to nullify the first function of forms, creating other forms, another form, with its own time. It is a construction between ceramics and other media, mixing image references, fictitious memories, and sounds that confirm the work.
The works must be shown in a loop, with loud sound, since sound definitively confirms their movements. Observing the movement that accompanies each animated piece is essential.
Developing animations, alongside the physical presence of the work, intends to constantly re-signify and transcend the forms themselves, offering the eye a new perception at every moment.
This is the path: thinking more, writing, drawing, creating.
