Last project in residence

LUAº arises from the concept of the circle as a temporal-spatial and physicochemical cycle of the female body: a routine body, almost exhausted, almost ecstatic, that navigates through different respiratory—and therefore emotional—states. Each body, a state. Each cycle, a state. Each woman, a body. LUAº is filled with mirror women who reveal the hungry intuition and fearful rationality of bodies that vibrate and move through space; fertile and infertile women over 28 days, 672 hours, and 40,320 minutes, rooted in the pulse of their wombs, constructing a single cyclical principle.
