Че Биде
La Biennale di Venezia 2019 Palazzo Mora, Venice
Personal Structures - Identities
The project ‘Че Биде’ is a transformational installation that mirrors the world at a time of change that reflects on our future every day. ‘Че Биде’ symbolizes the rhythm of my performances. I expose my creative process while that process is a reflection of the ‘interesting’ times in which we live in and manifests itself in a multimedia exhibition. In my work, an analogous collapsing of borders occurs between artist and form.
Covering more than a decade of artistic research and work in a different range of media, I have now chosen my own body as my primary and essential medium. ‘Че Биде’ is a performance installation that comments on the process of entering and moving through deferent mental constructs that artists embody during the performance. All of these performances are anchored in visual and body art and share a through the line of endurance. This is a durational work during which I cast myself as a signifying body in a field of social semiotics, by using performance and visual representation - to explore psychoanalytic themes such as identity, death, loss, injustice and the status of the ego in contemporary society.
