RACHIS

A piece created through, with and about the back. By eliminating the front side of the bodies, where usually the communication is projected through – backwards becomes forward – a unique connection is created, extending the senses and going beyond sight, hearing, taste, smell or touch. The breath is pulsing, continuously, is taking shape, is shaping masses – backs transforming.
