︎ RESIDENCY ART PROJECT
BIOPHONY: DANCING NATURE is an interdisciplinary art project that delves into the harmonious relationship between nature, technology, and art. Conceived during a unique residency at MOLINOLAB SANCTI SPIRITUS, SALAMANCA, SPAIN, in May 2024, this project brought together nine artists from diverse fields to collaboratively explore how digital technology can capture, interpret, and express the dynamic interactions of biological systems through artistic practice.
The vision of BIOPHONY: DANCING NATURE is to create a profound, immersive experience that transcends conventional boundaries between the natural world and digital expression. Employing innovative tools such as SymBioWare technology, which translates real-time biological data from plants into MIDI formats, the project seeks to uncover the hidden rhythms of nature and reimagine how these can be interpreted through creative practice.
The objectives of the project are threefold: first, to foster a dialogue between nature, art, and technology, highlighting their interconnectedness and mutual influence; second, to develop new forms of sensory perception and artistic expression through collaborative creative practices and advanced technology; and third, to engage the public in an experiential narrative that invites deeper reflection on their own relationship with the environment.
BIOPHONY: DANCING NATURE is more than an art project—it is an invitation to rethink how we interact with and perceive the living world. It invites audiences to join a journey where art, nature, and technology converge in a constantly evolving dance, blurring the boundaries between the organic and the digital, the seen and the unseen.

Childhood - Illuminations - Arthur Rimbaud
Childhood - Illuminations - Arthur Rimbaud
That idol, black eyes and yellow mop, without parents or court, nobler than Mexican and Flemish fables;
his domain, insolent azure and verdure, runs over beaches called by the shipless waves, names ferociously Greek, Slav, Celt.
At the border of the forest - dream flowers tinkle, flash, and flare, - the girl with orange lips, knees crossed in the clear flood that gushes from the fields, nakedness shaded, traversed, dressed by rainbow, flora, sea.
Ladies who stroll on terraces adjacent to the sea; baby girls and giantesses, superb blacks in the verdigris moss, jewels upright on the rich ground of groves and little thawed gardens, - young mothers and big sisters with eyes full of pilgrimages, sultanas, princesses tyrannical of costume and carriage, little foreign misses and young ladies gently unhappy.
What boredom, the hour of the "dear body" and "dear heart.
"Artificial Lullaby" exposing at AI+ Artificial Intelligence and Art Exhibition | Linz, Austria, 2024
At the heart of "Artificial Lullaby" lies a poetic conversation between the artist and the artificial intelligence, spurred by the verses of Arthur Rimbaud's poem "Childhood." The project germinated from a desire to articulate the images and emotions encapsulated in the poem, as the artist sought to convey their personal interpretation to the AI.

The journey, however, didn't stop with Rimbaud's verses. It expanded into a broader, more intimate exploration. The generative animation breathes life into the artist's recollections, stitching together fragments from her childhood. These moving visuals become a cinematic tapestry, weaving the threads of personal history into the project's narrative.
"Artificial Lullaby" is a conversational experiment in the language of images and memories. Through the dance between human recollections and machine interpretation, the project becomes a testament to the enduring power of childhood dreams and the abilityof technology to resurrect andreimagine them.
