The “Esporas” proposal was born from the concern of wanting to approach science, through digital art, to understand an apparently different world but in which possibly the same questions about origin and transcendence lie.
For that, looking at the world of spores, offers me an “imaginary world” of cellular geometries that permanently mutate from their existence, expansion and colonization of new territories.
Moving along digital art, I seek to generate a story that allows the viewer to go from the concrete and “exact” proposal of science, to a subjective reflection of what the “Spores” propose in terms of origin and survival.
On my way as an artist, I am very interested in the interdisciplinary intersection where scientists and artists propose a collaborative space for questions, research and creation of a conceptual imaginary.
On the other hand, I am interested in investigating and proposing unconventional and immersive narratives, where the movement of light and sound design manage to generate temporary trance spaces.
