Everything is energy: flowing, unseen yet felt. Aura is the quiet echo of that energy, shifting with emotion, radiating essence into the world. It is not seen, but it is felt. And triggered.
We translate this essence into a visual and emotional experience of colours, reflections and shapes. Each aura becomes a unique expression: vibrant or subdued. Fluid or structured.
Always personal and deeply human.

Aura is an exploration of body, movement and light. Inspired by the idea of an aura as something intangible yet perceptible, the installation gives the invisible presence a physical response.
A reflective spiral hangs above a floor-fixed light source, remaining flat until pulled by a transparent thread with a handle that sets it in motion.
As the spiral rises, its form unfolds and its relationship with the light continuously changes, casting shifting reflections throughout the space, both on the floor and the ceiling.
The people’s gestures become the trigger, turning a simple movement into an ephemeral atmosphere that exists only for that moment.
