A.I.R.

Artistic research in with different outcomes: inflatable sculpture, a graphic piece, a poem, a research paper and an online archive of the process.

“A.I.R. From radical individuality to connected subjectivity” was a year long research project that took place from the midst of the COVID-19 lockdowns.

In the moments of bigger closure and necessary distancing, when air was the most dangerous but also vital element to dispose, we wondered what was happening with our closeness and therefore, with our collective agency to trigger social changes.

Hence, during the first half of 2020 we collected in Twitter the topics that were connecting us and embodied this data in a breathing inflatable sculpture that could only be experienced from the street of the Science Gallery.

Other outcomes of this project were a research paper with all the conceptual development, a poem and a graphic piece exposing the results of the social media listenings.
