# 3 (in the 'Noise-Body' series, 2011)
Performance at the Paço das Artes in São Paulo

My research as an artist in the last years consisted in developing an art procedure that I entitled 'Corpo Ruído' ('Noise-Body'). This practice operates with the capacity of those devices of the senses that can generate a destabilization of the idea of a body that experience. I chose to operate on the aforementioned devices, because the latter are capable of producing distortions that can affect the usual understanding of an experience, by bringing about an alternative perceptive experience of an environment. In my practice, I have created a series of performances in which I cover all my body with very strong magnets, while I have others performers cover these magnets with industrial iron scraps all the way until my body disappears under this trash.

Paula Garcia (São Paulo, 1975). Artist and researcher holds a master’s degree in Visual Arts from FASM-SP and a Bachelor of Arts from FAAP. Her research and artistic experiences focus on performance and curatorial practice. She works as an artist, independent curator and project curator at MAI – Marina Abramovic Institute.
