EXOGENUS VITA
Beyond Form
Every form is recognized through categories that experience has taught us to consider familiar. But what happens when matter is transformed to the point of challenging those very categories?
Exogenus Vita explores this boundary through the transformation of floral forms. Starting from real organisms, photographic and digital interventions alter their structure, generating configurations that retain traces of their origins yet seem to belong to an unfamiliar natural order.
The transformation concerns more than visible form. By altering matter, the image calls into question the way we observe and recognize it. What initially appears familiar becomes uncertain; what seemed defined reveals unexpected possibilities.
Exogenus Vita thus investigates the relationship between matter and thought, showing how vision can move beyond the limits of known forms and open up new possibilities of perception. The boundary may lie not in matter itself, but in the systems through which we have learned to recognize it.
