This project explores radical dynamics and forms of resistance that are specific to the human body. Cells organise themselves into networks to defend the integrity of the human body; individuals come together in communities, in “social bodies”, capable of acting collectively against injustice. An organised entanglement of unique bodies moving with such vigor; no resistance is isolated. The work thus becomes an organism, pulsating, and unstable it seeks to make visible when the community overflows, a moment that is once fragile powerful and human. The puissance of a community, unleashed, united and overflowing, as if in a trance, is capable of creation and destruction. Each distinct fragment contributes to the sinuous composition, forming multitudes of networks that oscillate to the cadence of humanity.
