From Latin exuberare ("to grow thickly, to abound"), from ex ("out") and uber ("udder"), and originally would have referred to a cow or she-goat which was making so much milk that it naturally dripped or sprayed from the udder.
Exuberance is a series of prints epitomising the material qualities of a voxel data driven geometries taken from the authors own body using Magnetic Resonance Imaging.
Self-contextual, the work explores the visceral qualities of embodied spaces that is articulated through the process of oscillating magnetic fields, questioning a traditional spatial definition.
The resulting objects are composed of a number of spatial frequencies at differing orientations where 'space' is generated through interlocking density fields.
The slices of the MRI scan are the basis to reinvest a newly created structure of virtual organs, a syncretic transplant that permits the emergence of a visceral state of fluctuation between real and virtual flesh components.
This transformation, from a Euclidean described solid body to a field of informed particles, described in medical terms as voxels, delineates new typologies of viscous bodies that are constantly readdressed, adjusted and, ultimately, modified.
