Shapeless faces and invisible images

Considering that subjectivation processes directly affect the mental health of populations, we pursue lines of flight to subvert systems of oppression by problematizing “the abstract-machine of faciality”. To this end, we deface standard faciality into fragments of becomings, pieces of imperceptible multiplicities, latent forces of an everyday that wants movement and, paradoxically, resists it. The method is an installation, where images alternate with philosophical and literary passages, making up a mosaic of intelligibility that mixes fiction and non-fiction. With regard to images, we make use of two main editing resources: transparency and overlay, which dialogue directly with the objective of undoing standard faciality with the subtleness and force of becomings. The corpus of study unfolds into three parts: becoming landing-between, becoming-flames, and, finally, becoming-tides.
