The Vulva Project started as a visual exploration of the experience of the anatomy of the female body with a case study of my own body. Using different visual tools, like drawing improvisation, prints on carved rubber, collages on 17th-century illustrations on the anatomy of pregnancy and birth, the mixed-media technique of photo-projection on skin, immersive installations, and more, I am curious about the body as a SPACE we can experience both from the inside and from the outside.

This journey and exploration have been the focus of my personal trials, which have been to build a holistic perception and image of my self and body and use philosophical and experiential means to tackle the human experience of gestation and birth of the self we construct/experience as adults, a phase of self-incubation. 

While we try to build an image for ourselves in the present, this image is highly informed by our experiences in the past, starting already from the time in the belly of our mother, as well as informed by the projections of who we want to become in the future. Both past and future affect our choices in the present, and on the other hand, recent interactions can reveal who we have been and what we have experienced through emotional signals in our body-spaces.
