Passion; an act of transformation// Master project in Royal Academy of fine arts of Antwerp.

Just take a look.
A body is struggling.

Are we different? I think we can be different. They taught us how to be different. Maybe we are the same. Eventually we are different.
But it doesn’t matter.

The costume is the trap.
Almost the whole history of mankind is written based on a male interpretation.

Ask a woman about it.

The body is caged in a costume which makes it hard for it to move. The costume keeps it in a passive state. But it must move. When the body starts moving it becomes active. And that’s passion. Being so fragile and so strong in the same time. The body is the medium to explore symbolically this emotion that can make you sway from one emotional condition to a completely different. Eventually, passion is not only related to love and desire. In greek, passion derives from the verb πάσχω [pascho], which means something happens to me.
