ABOUT

The work The skin is the stage. Instrument for listening. It arises from a quest to explore the edges of the body as territory and the skin as the first possible stage. In an attempt to listen to the skin and its singular narrative, I made a handmade suit with fabric woven in copper (conductive) and nylon. As an instrument for listening to the skin and its silenced, encapsulated, and abstracted narratives. The suit functions as an instrument for listening to the skin only when connected to a larger external electronic system. From a singular sensory organ to an organ of a plural body system.

Uteroclub Is a LIVE project of Emilia Álvarez and Laura Fuchs, that takes the idea of ​​the uterus (as a biological technology) and the atmosphere of a nightclub (as a potential space for community and diversity). The project investigates the relationship between the two environments, as a shared space that enables encounter, connection, and mutation between bodies.
