From when we are separated from our mother's body, we constantly enter into a relationship with others. We affect and are affected by all that surrounds us in interacting. Any internal changes bring transformation to relations, also the other way around. In this constant circulation, every being evolves perpetually within the relation. I depict the impalpable form of the relation through bodily gestures. The body is a medium of encounters with others. But, on the other side, it does not cease as an ever-changing form of relationship.

The Yoga series is inspired by yoga postures, an ensemble of spiritual and bodily practices - a combination of external and internal performance. Within this performance, I look for the possibility of appropriating the flexibility and the tension when we entered into relation. The work is constituted by the symbol of everyday objects and organic material. Every component works as an organ, beyond a material, and interacts with each other. The work continuously is in the subtle transformation and determines its shape itself. It provides the site where one can visually experience the fluid movements of relations, with its process of interaction.
