The Body as Acoustic Architecture
My practice positions the human body not as a biological diagram but as a complex acoustic structure: a system of resonance and symbolic exchange rooted in the pre-Hispanic ceramic aerophones of Ecuador (500 BC – 500 AD).
The body becomes an architectural frame designed to shape breath and frequency. My research focuses on the hypothesis that ancient sound sculptures functioned as acoustic stimulation tools, placing internal resonators at key somatic points—the cranial cavity, the joints—to establish a vibrational map of human anatomy.
I seek to identify specific frequencies that establish a state of bio-resonance with the human structure. Through anatomical resonators, the work investigates the intersection between sculpture and vibrational activation: ceramics as a bridge between material science and physiological experience.
