Mirroring a party scenario in which one invites guests into their home, making the private public, Soares captures the private moments after a celebration ends, when the space remains charged by the memories and
traces of a fleeting moment and space; in this way, the viewer provides a narrative for this mis en scene.
At once seductive and unsettling, Szapocznikow's work is often made from direct impressions and casts
of body parts, each an attempt to fix the
traces of the body and record the
fleeting moments and absurd paradoxes
of life.
