Flesh is a series of drawings that explores the materiality of the body and the shared vulnerability we all experience as living beings. Based on scanned photographs of cuts of pork, transferred in their real proportions onto cardboard, the work transforms the ephemeral into record, as if it were a biological or anthropological archive. It does not seek hyperrealism, but rather a diffuse image, reminiscent of old medical lithographs.

Among these drawings appears a pig’s heart, close to the human both in anatomy and in cultural imagination, suggesting absent beats and reinforcing the tension between the vital and the inert.

Flesh reflects on the tension between eating and being eaten, between persistence and disintegration. It is an archive of the perishable that attempts to perpetuate the ephemeral, condensing in each trace the memory of a body that no longer beats but endures as a metaphor of our shared fragility and as an invitation to reflect on what it means to be a body in the world.
