CORPUS MEUM is a series of digitally created paintings that explores the visible and invisible perception of corporeality. This work explores awareness of the body, the passage of time, and the concept of change. One image hides another, and the aim is to create a new dimension in:between abstraction and figuration in the digital and analog worlds. This series presents a different perspective on the female bodily experience, one that can be seen as digital distortions that explore contemporary physical conditions. Conceptually, this series explores the phenomenology of the body as both subject and medium, suggesting that physicality is never static, but rather a site of transition, interruption, and reinterpretation. The layered visual syntax mirrors the way we experience identity: as a sequence of fluid, overlapping impressions rather than a single fixed form. By navigating the threshold between analog tactility and digital manipulation, CORPUS MEUM challenges the notion of visual coherence. It refuses the unified image, embracing distortion as a form of feminist inquiry — where fragmentation speaks to embodied vulnerability, social invisibility, and the multiplicity of lived experience. In each piece, the body dissolves and re-emerges, reflecting the tension between control and transformation. The use of digital painting opens space for expression outside traditional representation, drawing attention to how technologies not only depict, but reshape our perception of flesh, memory, and gendered presence. These works suggest that corporeality is no longer confined to skin and form; it is refracted through pixels, movement, emotion, and code. CORPUS MEUM is a meditation on what it means to inhabit a body in a world where representation flickers between visibility and disappearance.
