Formation, like words taking form according to functional needs of a language, presents a continuous transformation of previews artworks. It follows the work developed around the concept of the “Collective Unknown”, in 2022.
In the world of phenomenon, Formation can represent the transformation of the same thing throughout time, appearing with new elements and new artistic language. While in the form of thinking, these new elements undergo themselves a transformation through layers of ideas and concepts. This is a process often driven by new knowledge or understandings. Intentionally, art practice becomes artistic research, expanding to territories where past and present, memory and perception blend together to form certain persisting psychic states. Things, in the sense of feeling and sensations, part of past experiences still existing within you.
Formation connects conscious process in artistic research, activating the mechanism of processing abstract elements (traces) that move within internal world of an individual. These parts, which I call remains or remnants, can be seen as information that remains in the human unconscious. In the psychic world, everything intertwines with “personal osmosis diffusion”, taking mental or imaginary forms, being clothed with different emotional and sensational nuances. Over time, in human memory, all past and external inputs lose most of their details, leaving then, traces that encapsulate the essence of this or that event.
If we imagine a reservoir existing within us and filled with emotional memory, or a kind of feeling representing self-reflections, we will see it forming single visual manifestation. This works, of the year 2023, have been developed around the search for a figurative language of things that exist, move, develop, and remain within me.
