I try to approximate art\u2019s from life\u2019s methods. Also the mixing of languages is a characteristic; as well as pliability. That means there are different ways for this work to be displayed on the Bienal Sur: it can have only pictures and texts, graphics elements; it can also have video; it can compose an installation; have me performing it live. It can be a part, it can be all together. And in any way: it will be plenary.\n\nHaving that explained, this project sees people as galaxies: a complex system full of proper structures, signs and meaning. Full of lives inside itself. To investigate that, I use groups of body spots as constellations. The inspiration for that came during a trip to Argentina in 2004, when I discovered the word \u201clunares\u201d nominating the spots on our skins. That semantic issue of Spanish language made me consider.\n\nSo I began to either intuitively or by interviewing people, register body constellations and baptize them, inventing myths of creation, legends and fictional stories or explanations for each. I have pictures and texts, objects like maps, videos and the chance to be live performing, talking with people and showing\/registering their own galaxies in this human astronomy I do. Also my son was born last year and I\u2019ve been watching the coming spots. Registering the birth of a galaxy.","space":"I think this pliability is important (specially over this pandemic circumstances and all doubts about future). Also the ability to \u201cmake it fit\u201d has been essential for me as a Latin American artist coming from poverty and precariousness. I could send only images with texts, or also some videos, objects (all the sizes and proportions can be set). In case to build a installation a 4m\u00b2 area would be good. To be performing it live, simple things and a audience available (I could also do it online).","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"es","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":null,"audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"fileCount":2,"names":"Rafael","surname":"Manfrinatto de Carvalho","email":"contatorafacarvalho@gmail.com","dni_type":"PASAPORTE","dni":"FP474947","address":"Rua Ana Arruda de Camargo, 6.
