Description | Opus Corpus is an anatomical landscape. Its starting point is a thought about a transparent space where every movement is as if taken under a magnifying glass. An expedition to the zone of joints which grabs along muscles and the compressed mind. Sometimes bones are on the way. The corpus, the core point appears. The pulse accelerates. A movement, organic yet controlled at the same time, creates space around it where the tension keeps rising till the end. (Favela Vera Ortiz) |
