It is the examination of the physical object, the egg, the matter. 

In these aspects is the exploration of the physical properties of the egg: the sensory: Sensorial approach.




  • tactile: as some are more flattened, others have prominences:  shape, size, weight, texture, temperature, area, volumen. 

    • The craft of the touch:  the quality: materials, weight, size, temperature, skin, textures, pressure, squeezing , humidity. elasticity. resistance capacity, to pressure, adaptability

  • smell /taste: raw, cooked, outside, fried, dryed for days, fresh, old, timing

  • sound. Inside moving. crack, shell, with the skin, in different consistencies

  • form: colors, different kinds,



“If I’m making work, I really

am choreographing the space,

the arrival, the way in which the

work meets the public. There’s

so much of this work, there’s

so much additional labour that

I think a lot of disabled, d/Deaf,

chronically ill, and neurodiverse

artists are contributing.

There’s a choreography of all

that work, that goes beyond

those conventional ideas

of choreography as just

being concerned with dance

and what dancing bodies

are doing on the stage.”

----------------------------------------------

-Happy me, nobody broke an egg.



Arise :  - new questions, reflections. Conflicts came....



What kind of sensing do the eggs produce? 

This point led me to wonder how this material reacts in other spaces.

This question brought me to look outside the domestic space. To test how the material reacted when I put it in different spaces.  So I took it out in different architectures, buildings, in the street, in the courtyard of HZT. Since 2022


HZT courtyard.



What kind of surroundings do they produce? 

In certain universities in architecture, students are tested to create a space that prevents an egg from breaking when it falls. have you seen what the students have created to pass that exam?


What kind of conditions need to be created to protect the egg and eggshells?
