We have created artefacts, objects designed for specific functions that allow us to perform tasks that otherwise would be impossible, expanding our bodily abilities. These rest[less] objects expand both our physical and symbolic possibilities, based on our cultural needs. A piece of clothing protects us from the cold, and also from social factors. We survive in our adaptation to language, power, meaning. In this experience, whose central axis is ceramics, the artist questions the limits between nature, technology and body. She expands the possibilities of the body, distancing herself from the dichotomy of language, investigating her own signifiers. She considers our relationship with nature, to which we have assigned a different place in language. The artist posits that what we are and the landscape we inhabit are intimately linked. The project Rest[less] Object has transformed into an experimental process that combines ceramics, textiles, plastic, glass, and metal. Some of those results combine actions and photographic records. The pieces are ambiguously organic and artificial, fragile and resistant, ornamental and minimal, soft and hard, industrial and manual. They have been affected by the post-industrial landscape in which they coexist with hybrid beings.
