R A D I C A L C A R E is a large scale installation that consists of two pieces: a hand-felted Textile made of human-hair (400×190cm) and a Collection of hair donations from approx 180 individuals.

R A D I C A L C A R E is a proposition for intimacy, togetherness and co-creation

a tapestry of woven bodies-territories-stories-relationships

R A D I C A L C A R E es pensamiento vivo que trasciende la materia

it is a place of encounters

a place of learning

a place of confrontation

R A D I C A L C A R E is making space to feel the things that seem too big to feel alone

is a revolt and is a gathering

it is collective struggle and collective joy

a reaction against practices of fast production/consumption/pollution existing in the ways of hyper-capitalism today

R A D I C A L C A RE is the enchantment of the matter

It is raw

experimental

biodegradable

R A D I C A L C A R E is reciprocity. A concoction of nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen and carbon meant to return to the Soil

In the context of crescent fascism all around us, this piece, is as much an act of resistance as it is an enactment of

R A D I C A L C A R E
