"The name Histolysis comes from the biological process by which tissues break down during metamorphosis. In this work, histolysis is a condition of dissolution that makes transformation possible, not as a loss but as potential."
"The sculpture is composed of twenty modular nodes with 3D-printed joins, comprised of custom designed PCBs with Esp32s, each a self-contained unit of motion and sensing."
"Transformation unfolds not as spectacle, but as an infrastructural condition, gradual, distributed, and ongoing. The system resists resolution, remaining in a state of continuous reconfiguration."
"The work asks whether belonging can stretch across stages of radical change, and whether identity can survive not through continuity but through adaptation."
Histolysis is a kinetic installation that engages nonhuman systems through attunement and incorporates a root-like structure that pulses with motion. Its name stems from the biological process of tissue breakdown during metamorphosis. This artwork presents transformation as a state of potential rather than loss, leading to inquiries about identity across stages of change. It is composed of modular nodes that connect magnetically, behaving more like a distributed body rather than a machine, showcasing slow motion and coordinated reactions. Histolysis was first shown at the NEW INC - Creative Science Demo Festival in 2025.
