It’s Mine Or It’s Me (2025)
This work investigates how the naked body can be detached from its usual cultural, symbolic, and moral connotations. How can one perceive a body without the socially conditioned frameworks that shape our ways of seeing?
The body is approached as a form. Through distortion, it loses its recognizable contours and becomes an autonomous object or being - an entity that moves beyond dominant interpretive structures.
Parallel to this, a generative live sound composition unfolds continuously without repetition. This auditory strategy functions as a metaphor for a perceptual space in which normalisation and conditioned thinking, arising from repetition and reinforcement, can’t exist.
