Resumo(s)
When I was a child, fortunately, I used to sleep with the light on. The absence of light was lived through as a phobia, a fear of what can’t be seen, of what can’t be perceived, as an unbearable feeling of nothing, of emptiness. Death existed in that space; it walked and lived in darkness, inhabiting the unknown. Over time, these problematic issues were converted into something new. I do not know exactly what this new thing is, but we can say we have created a familiar relationship. Throughout my existence, this discomfort, and at the same time curiosity, unconsciously generated a primary point of reference of great personal interest. Later, when I began to contemplate some of these powerful emotional feelings, I began to select them, understand them, and name them: space, time, life and death, and light. Dealing with some of the natural facts of life soon started to be an important part of my reality. Later, a sort of tranquility set in.
Thus, this thesis comes from an intimate personal perspective, where I do not seek for answers or explanations, but where I simply expose my perspective on some specific fields, pertinent to my personal and artistic motivations, and hopefully creating consistent and deep associations between them.
Light comes later, as the central point of reference; a point of concert and harmony, living as the unifying element. Light is the connecting topic that involves all these referents, and is explored between the fields of art and science.
