Between the installation and the performance, Habitat takes place in a set made of oak wood sculptural objects which pour the fine arts identity of an artist who, since 1993, has chosen Sintra as a permanent place of residence. Each sculpture of Habitat has an inner universe to be discovered by the spectator, as if the trees’ breath and soul contained the path of what we desire and don’t desire. They could be talking sculptures or it could be nature questioning, but it’s rather the multidisciplinarity of the artistic production that makes the object integrate a screen and a speaker which act as a virtual stage for dancing. The merge between dance and sculpture, which happened in 2010, is possible through technology and a software specifically designed for the performance, giving us the illusion that movement occurs inside the object as if art, born from nature, was the habitat of the body which is drawn in the air.
