About the artwork
In About the Weather, I wanted to explore the relationship between introspective and prospective visions, blending multiple interpretative frameworks in an attempt to visualize the diverse perceptions regarding a singular moment. As if it were possible to glide through an experience, grasping the myriad facets and feelings it encapsulates, and the simultaneity in which they manifest. In this sense, I feel this series as a patchwork of different perspectives, woven together to expand the perception of a single sensation into a three-dimensional, emotional space where, ideally, my inner perspective and that of the external world interact, giving rise to a new vision.
This series also aims to be a visual representation of the changes in what I could define as my inner weather and of all those times when I have tried to communicate a feeling, a sensation, and instead of expressing it with words, I have taken a photograph.
I transferred these images into a 3D environment ruled by the physical world, and through AI, I have merged all the elements to create an interior representation suspended between the real and the artificial, where singular and plural perceptions and trajectories intersect.
