Morph is a continuous line that begins with a white disc 3.5 cm in diameter and ends with another disc measuring 2.5 cm. At the centre is a connecting element—a spine made of reclaimed wood and foam—that bridges the gap while enabling the structure to fold upon itself through the alternating sequence of its discs.
Morph emerges from a journey of illness and healing, of loves lost and rekindled, of things misplaced and rediscovered. It embodies the inevitable transformation and necessary adaptation—a small poetic “device.”

The artwork is part of a new series of works titled Seamless, where the cataloging of wooden material takes on a more evocative significance, through the oblivion of memory, as Borges stated. The result is installations that, although rooted in anatomical reminiscences, aim for structural interaction with the places, in a progressive adapting process of these delicate structures.
