Hematic Cultures
Anaís Córdova-Páez
Hematic Cultures is about interspecies relationships, light experimentation and the ability to use the body as a territory. »After coating my own film with menstrual blood and silver to catch the light, I left the film to decompose over a period of six months. During this time, I took samples of the micro fauna colonising the film. I recorded the fungus growing on the film and then combined these images with 16 mm film.«
