Normal nr. 7 is a piece composed of a photograph from a medical slides archive printed on cotton paper that was exposed to a device of intravenous lines filled with black stamping ink. The image shows a part of the female body that is fractioned in three. For three months, the photograph was subject to an irregular dripping that modified it. The work is changing along time and is constantly in transformation although the ink is not falling, since the absorbed liquid keeps running through the paper fibers. In this contraction of the ink, the image subtly appears again. Normal nr. 7 is a piece that testimonies the occlusion of representation through the ink used at bureaucratic offices. The body redoubles its influence and what it represents, having gone through a disobedient immersion, without scientific regulations or exact measures.
