A breathing sculpture

A breathing sculpture

Breathing, more importantly, breathing consciously manages stress and stimulates positive emotions. This instalation represents personal growth in the form of a breathing - rising and shrinking - sculpture. A story about societal pressure and mental struggle that is turned into strength. Feeling lost and finding a way back through breath and reflection. Showing that there are moments of release, hope and rising. Inviting the audience to be patient and reflect on their own breath. Seeking for these moments of release.

I am freezing and breaking, 
melting and turning into mist. 
Evaporating as the days pass.

Dropping down, 
searching for the right spot to land. 

From a stream, into a river, into an ocean. 
Apparently that’s where success lies. 

Again, until I freeze, I break, I melt. 

This physical installation is part of a VR experience; Estirão. Team: Ana Luiza Albuquerque (Project Manager & Sound Design), Jordan Sambogna (Head off VR Experience), Hedieh Shahidi (Head of Scenography), Almila Bulu (3D Designer), Lisa Bot (Installation Artist)
