"A body that persists - Insistencia del cuerpo" works with a body that persists despite its conflict with its environment — and an environment that proposes the same. Tensions between the body and the conditions of its existence.
Figures the visual system seeks to dismantle, and visual systems the figure tries to overcome.
What we see is organic matter resisting reduction to mere information — scraping, accumulating, invading both digital and physical surfaces.

About me
Diego Baigorri (Argentina, 1984). Visual artist and creative developer. His practice unfolds between painting and working with systems, exploring the relationship between body, image and structure.
His work has been exhibited internationally, with presence in shows, catalogues and publications in Paris, New York, London, Rome, Barcelona and Dubai.
He was part of the Post-disciplinary Philosophical Studies Centre [CE(Fi)P] at the National University of Rosario, a line of inquiry he continues in his current work through the development of artistic production systems, essays, and methodologies.
He is artistic director and facilitator of the «Laboratorio d'arte Tintoretto», a space dedicated to experimentation and the development of production processes focused on children.
