‘Making a separation between our own lives, and how we interact with the world and with ‘Art’ in particular is not easy. Art objects embody ideas and experiences just as it occurs in our body; the medium where everything occurs. The interpretation depends on how it is sensed by each individual. Different layers and filters produced in our socio-cultural context are treated as material, also sound, language, hard or soft material, experiences, meanings are treated and interpreted as a material with the knowledge that it shifts and changes in time.
