Breathe

Overview

The “Breathe” project consists of a videoperformace in which we juxtapose two contradictory and incompatible elements, such as smoking and surgical masks. I am establishing elements of the absurd, on play, and spontaneity, made using a simple and short-term action. The work is based on the crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, hence the use of the mask, as a metaphor for protection. Symbolizing smoke contamination, infection, intoxication of the lungs produced by the virus, since smoking affects the body in a similar manner.
