In unpredictable swirls, a body spreads out like a pulsating and ambiguous terrain. What lives here? Between storm and calm, at the surface and the skin, movements, flows and voices emerge from past and future. Fossils and echoes are awakened. A signal gets stronger and reverses. They expand past their bodies. Now only natural phenomena.
