A Translating Body - Parque Explora

Culture & institutions

A sensory installation for Parque Explora’s Mind Hall.

Video 01 ↗

An immersive installation created for the Mind Hall (Sala de la Mente) at Parque Explora, born from a fundamental question: how do we translate the world through our bodies? The project explores the idea that the senses are much more than simple receivers of information; they are bridges connecting us to an intimate and inexplicable dimension of the human experience. Through an interplay of projections and atmospheres, the piece invites the viewer to transcend ordinary perception and rediscover that to feel is also an act of imagining and dreaming.

You discover yourself as an echo of evolution. A body that rose, hands that learned to create, and a voice that emerged from within the bones. You are but a blurry gesture in the cosmos, a material being that touches immensity only to feel what dwells both inside and out.

What are these lights? Are they clouds? Are they suns? In this stage, you are a translating body that turns the universe into an inner current. You are invited to abandon the name and surrender to pure sensation: to let a flash become a spark in your brain, a caress become an electric charge, and the air become chemical streams. Here, what happens in the deep speaks the language of light.

Listen. Here, you discover that your body shares the substance of the world. A river's current holds the echo of the first sounds, and in every stone, you find animal and plant relatives. It is an experience of profound connection, a moment when one thing becomes another, and you realize that your life is also the others.
