Cod.Act — The Ghoul (2024)

A rubber hose suspended by elastic bands responds to hydraulic pulses. When the frequencies resonate, its movement grows. Music generates the pulses that shape this material dance.

The installation unsettles the distinction between object and creature. Its strangeness emerges from a visible physical phenomenon: a presence seems to arise through relationships between pressure, elasticity and sound.
