Symbiotic Ritual
The Earth has evolved through the exercise of error and consciousness. Man himself is only flesh, matter that becomes living energy by assimilating his mystical and cosmic form. Human behaviour has the power to transform the biosphere. As a species man is the greatest existing biological force: it consumes, alters, transforms, creates and destroys. It increasingly resembles to an insatiable bacteria of resources, territory and power, strengthening its destructive nature and minimizing its creative nature by its predatory instinct. This project is a personal discovery in which my cultural roots and current state of consciousness are the protagonists. Through the magnification of the imperceptible, I intend to open a discussion in an archetypal and symbolic way about the essence and purpose of human life, with the help of images, building a bridge of symbiotic relationships between past, present and future.
Past: Represented by geometric schemes of animals originated from the indigenous culture of “Salasaca” of the central zone of Ecuador (Province of Tungurahua). In the Andean worldview, art is one of the essential forms of transmission of culture and ancestral teachings, is also an identification tool and a vehicle of expression. Indigenous culture is characterized by its conscientious relationship of dependence with the forces of nature. Getting retroactive-feedback through conscious energy achieved with a lifestyle close to nature and grace rituals that include offerings.
Present: Myself and my being, represented by my body. My present external condition, the skin I inhabit; in which allows me to interact in this physical reality with other life forms that adapt in symbiosis to survive.
Future: Bacteria that inhabit my skin as anonymous guests on scales almost impossible for my understanding. According to science these are beings provided with special conditions in the universe, because they are able to adapt, unite, mutate and survive in any existing environment.
Ritual
The consciousness about my being and its place in this frequency connects me directly with life. It awakens my sensory sensibility in such a way that it makes me part of the cosmic energy in the great universal mystic temple, which I thank with these actions, as my ancestral culture would have done: using art as a ritualistic means of expression and life. Action in which I give life to these ancestral schemes that are symbols enclosed and transmitted through the feeling of time, space, and reality.
First Try STENCIL
== Process: ==
1 Step:
MEDIA
-Gluose -Peptone -Yeast extract -Distilled Water -Agar
Growing my own Bacteria
Bacteria Eyes
Face Bacteria
2 Step: Cut the pattern on a metallic surface.
"Salasaca Bird" Stencil Pattern
Pattern trimmed in a solution (100ml) of 1,5 g Agar + distilled water 100ml
Trimmed Agar fulled with solution (100ml) of peptone 0,5 g + agar 1,5 g + sugar 2 g and yeast 0,5g
Results after 7 days of placing the bacteria in the stencil area
Second Try DRAWING WITH BACTERIA
Process:
Using the bacteria-free area
Using my eyes bacteria for drawing
Result after 7 days
Third Try DRAWING ON STENCIL AREA
Process:
Using my Face bacteria after 14 days of incubation
Using an Agar base
Adding the stencil on the Agar platte
Waiting till it draws
Cutting the stencil area
Fulling trimmed Agar with mix of peptone, agar, sugar and yeast
Drawing on the stencil area with my face bacteria
RESULTS AFTHER 5 DAYS
RESULTS AFTHER 15 DAYS
Fourth try
Materials
MEDIA 1 100ml
-Antibiotic 0,30 g -Distilled water 100ml -Agar 1,5 g
MEDIA 2 100ml
-Glucose 2g -Peptone 0,5 g -Yeast extract -Distilled water 100ml -Agar 1,5 g
MEDIA 1 100ml
MEDIA 2 100ml
Results after 8 Days
In this case no bacteria grow but fungi from air.
CONCLUSIONS:
Use less Antibiotic and draw the bacteria with some tweezers using already growing bacteria. Be careful with the disinfected working area.
CLONING EXPERIMENT
