MUSING ENERGIES SPROUTING FROM THIS ROOT ENERGY
THE ARTIST, THE MUSE AND THE ABSOLUTE SPACE
Exploring the connection of the artist with the creative space, his relationship with the muse or musing energy and their coexistence in the Absolute Space.
Ever since the idea for Sensetorm first came to me, I’ve been exploring my connection to the creative space, my relationship with “the muse” or “musing energy” and our coexistence in the Absolute Space.

THE BODY ENERGY CAPACITORS
The Body Energy Capacitors refer to the different areas in the body where the energy is stored and processed. These Energy Centers are the sources of many sensory-somatic stimuli and trigger a great number of what I call “musing energies”. Although an impulse might originate in more than one capacitor at the time - creating a sub-circuit of energy in between them - there’s always one center where the intensity of the impulse feels greater.

TRANSCENDING THE IMPERMEABLE MASK
Like many of my other ideas, projects, realizations, etc., the visual representation of my current personal and creative life came to me in a dream. There I stood in front of a group of people fighting to break out of this impermeable shell - my public self - which with age and the loss of my senses have become hardened and stronger in the last few years. After I woke up, I was able to put everything into perspective and visualize the path to follow to avoid loosing myself completely and becoming the mask.
Awakening The Energy: Inside Out - is the second session from the Awakening The Energy series. After shooting “Recharging”, I thought it would be interesting to play with a “physical shell” rather than just an imaginary one. The large plastic bag I used for these photos not only provide a visual aid for others but more importantly, it helped a great deal in recreating this “bubble” which was both suffocating and isolating, as well as, protective and comforting.
