I once used the term "bodily ego", which I understood to mean a strong,
almost visceral identification between the body of the creator and/or the body of the viewer and the form.
I could also have used Gaston Bachelard's term "muscular consciousness.”
Lucy R. Lippard, 2007

glotis is a project about the sculptural (tactile) eruptions that appear when we perform the frequent exercise of swallowing. The project investigates the correlations between haptics and phonetics, while at the same time stripping away the rigour of these two sciences. I composed a kind of soundtrack with the involuntary and/or embarrassing sounds produced when our digestive apparatus meets the phonator, such as hiccups, belching, throat clearing, bubbling, mumbling, salivation and other noises produced by this gymnastics that lack a name of their own.
