A.v.p. (Alba viridi pythonissan) is an artistic-scientific experiment exploring new forms of human becoming through the integration of body, technology, and nature. Rooted in biodesign and phenomenology, the project envisions mutation via prosthetic devices that enhance environmental relationships, the ingestion of concentrated chlorophyll, and the induction of trance states through repetitive movement and sound frequencies. Developed in collaboration with visual artist and designer Leo Ceolin, the Cyborg Woman-Plant-Machine Experiment employs bio-industrial wearables made from biomaterials and organic substances, designed to transform bodily limitations into expanded choreographic possibilities.
The performative research investigates how saturation, trance, and bionic movement can generate an immersive environment where performer, guests, and audience co-create the experience. Wearable objects, mobility devices, and sound interventions serve as catalysts for this process, positioning the observer as an active participant in the experiment.
By weaving together the symbolic dimensions of Alba (light), Viridi (green/plant kingdom), and Pythonissan (witch/healer), the project illuminates new pathways of coexistence, resistance, and reconnection with ecological rhythms, proposing a cyborg ontology of care and attentiveness.
Carolina Sudati a.k.a. Translúcida Bruta is a Brazilian dance and performance artist who investigates the relationship between body and wearable devices, interested in converting psycho-emotional limitations into expansions of movement. The successive creation of feminine becomings is present in their projects in which ruptures and reconnections with rhythm and the natural environment are constantly investigated at the intersection of territory.prosthesis.body. Together with associated artists—particularly visual artist and designer Leo Ceolin, multi-instrumentalist Jose Bárrickelo, and photographer Mayra Azzi—she creates performance-installations, video-performances, and wearable devices in different contexts and supports. She increasingly dedicates herself to the study of dark ecologies that emerge from vegetal hacking processes and material manifestations linked to mining, neo-extractivism, and post-industrialism, as well as to artistic investigation through specific parameters that include trance practices and consciousness expansion. She shares her processes through laboratories that stem from the subtle field of collectives and communities, converted into raw wearable manufacturing, generating dances and performative actions. Since the end of 2019, she has intensified creation in direct relationship with territory and local communities, establishing a transit between the rural zone and the urban space of the megalopolis São Paulo. Since 2023, she has been connected to the South American platform Observatorio de la Agonía, alongside Luis Carvalán, Mecha Mio, and Cristian Espinosa, with whom she has maintained a continuous exchange since 2017 through the project Corredor Electromagnético Paulista.
