The innumerable states of being

Self portraiture is a significant practice in my trajectory on photography. It is an exercise in creating ‘fictions of the self’ that emerge from identity and go beyond it. My choice for this kind of expression aims at experiencing the body as fiction in its relationship with the world: the fluidity of the contours of the self, the reverberation of such contours in space, the possibility of contact with otherness. Body as ‘presence’ which directly impacts on senses and other bodies; fictional body that interpellates and affects, that suggests and silences forms. I photograph myself as a way to explore multiplicity within wholeness and fragmentation within cohesion: the innumerable states of being.
