This work from the "Space" series explores life energy - the spirit within the body and its movement through space.
I document my own experience of the interaction between inner states, bodily sensations, and the external environment, exploring how they influence movement, perception, and the sense of presence.
Human beings, nature, and space emerge as interconnected systems that continuously affect one another. Space is not neutral: it can support or restrict movement, altering the state of the body and the way we inhabit it.
My method is based on reflecting on lived experience through bodily sensations and exploring it visually. Life energy emerges as a continuous process of movement and interaction, in which the inner and outer worlds continually transform one another.
Through this work, I invite viewers to reflect on their own experiences and to sense themselves as part of the space with which they are in constant interaction.
