X-ray images were invented in 1895, the same year in which the Lumière brothers presented their respective invention in what today is considered to be the first cinema screening. Thus, both cinema and radiography fall within the scopic regime inaugurated by modernity. The use of X-rays on two sculptures from the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum generates images that reveal certain elements of them that would otherwise be invisible to our eyes. These images, despite being generally created for technical or scientific purposes, seem to produce a certain form of 'photogénie': they lend the radiographed objects a new appearance that lies somewhere between the material and the ethereal, endowing them with a vaporous and spectral quality. It is not by chance that physics and phantasmagoria share the term 'spectrum' in their vocabulary.

In a world where everyone is expected to be on point 24/7, life isn’t lived anymore — it’s performed. Always grinding. Always proving. Always “doing fine”. But the mind keeps score. And when it can’t take it anymore… the body hits pause. JEEVA is a social satire on today’s pressure culture — where being human is replaced by being perfect, and panic attacks are just the body’s way of saying: slow down. breathe. exist.
