GRAFTS ( Photography Project)
Similarly, as with the notion of crossbreeding , to understand the concept of hybrid cultures, is often used in biology for later transfer to the world of culture. If we stick to this concept acquires significance in the biological field, hybridization is a process of generation of new species - the hybrid - from graft between two pre-existing and different species.
Wrapping, covering, bandaging are recognizable acts in the large urban stage, the city is decoded as a ductile manufacture of the collective behavior and with it a series of protection and concealment strategies. Taming these strategies allows us to reconstruct a new language on domestic objects and the immediate space, the house.
The displacement and recontextualization of these gestures, allows plastic and performative reading of the urban epidermis and a reflection on the acts that invade our daily life.
This photography project is developed after identifying the donor area in the public space, it will proceed with a displacement of the urban tissue selected, on the surface and the elements of a domestic area or objects. Through displacement of acts such as wrapping, covering,taping. Similarly as in the attachment of materials found in the donor public space.
These interventions will rework a dialogue, between every day life and consume these intimate spaces. Generating and spreading a urban and collective behaviors on them.
A reiterations of the same act on the same space that blurs, mechanized, reverses and affects objects and furniture and its inhabitants in order of use, appearance, handling and recognition.
