Organ

The body is my space, both the physical with its inner and outer parts, and also the space for my thoughts, feelings and reactions.

It is constantly exposed to influence, external and internal, voluntary or forced. It is in constant transformation, both in the inner and outer.

It adapts, resists and reacts with joy, fear, lust, anger and sorrow. The body’s physical reactions to internal or external circumstances, the lump of the throat, the swelling of the heart, the shivering in the skin of lust or discomfort, the tension of the shoulder muscles, the glow of the desire, the total emptiness of the breast, the spreading joy.

The physical reactions that occur in my body, in real or imaginary organs, have been used as inspiration and starting point.

I can be intimidated by the knowledge of all the internal organs of my body, which I always carry with me but never seen in reality, and I am fascinated by the artificial images I have seen of my brain, my heart, my breasts and my uterus. There is something inside of me, which I should know very well, that is parts of me, and yet they are so strange and alien.

This work is a different interpretation of the corpus, the customary object of tradition in silver. Yet, in some way, consequently, because the corpse means body.
