My particular experience in this project involves experimentation with hide tanning techniques aimed at creating three-dimensional objects that are luminous (or non-luminous). These take the form of installations that act as "living ephemeral sculptures" or living fossils—a direct derivation of the raw skin's reaction to water and humidity, achieved through the lime-based finishing technique used
My contribution as an artistic creator and project leader involves conducting a topographic survey of the hose's route. This work aims to document and recognize the unique, empirical "water science" developed by the local ranchers—a knowledge system where the practical technique of "going to fetch the water" becomes a method for knowledge generation.

Within this context, I envision an opportunity to integrate my artistic approach with transdisciplinary research, creating a bridge between local experience and artistic expression. A potential collaboration with a research laboratory could significantly enrich not only my personal project but also contribute to the collective understanding of the local water system, extending to state, regional,
This synergy between artistic practice, environmental observation, and active participation in local activities reinforces my commitment to interdisciplinary exploration. I am excited by the possibility of contributing to a transdisciplinary research laboratory, integrating the richness of local knowledge with my artistic perspective.

The lime-treated leather sculptures represent an innovative synthesis of ancient tanning techniques and contemporary art experiments within the realm of Land Art. This unique expressive medium evokes the appearance of "fossils from the future." The pursuit of textures, colors, and forms that mimic fossilization is a multifaceted exploration of materiality and aesthetics.
To erect a contemporary testament to the connection between past and future, between the ancestral and the innovative: sculptures that transcend the conventional.
Through creative processes that give life to forms evoking the very essence of transformation.
To imagine possible futures through speculative experimentation—a visual narrative of fossilized futures.
