Mar 13, 2022 /OUT OF BODY/ — Florencia S.M. Brück Launches “Out of Body”: A Groundbreaking Digital Performance
Artist Florencia S.M. Brück announces the release of Out of Body, a visionary digital performance work derived from her 2020 exhibition at Kunstverein Kunsthalle Hannover. Created by Florencia, performed by Laura De Luca, with music by Alessandro Branca, Out of Body marks a pioneering moment in performance art—merging generative visuals, blockchain technology, and immersive storytelling.

This innovative piece captures and preserves a once-intangible moment: the ephemeral nature of live performance reimagined as a collectible digital experience. As blockchain technology redefines ownership in the digital age, it also opens new frontiers for performance art—bridging time, space, and viewer interaction.
The work explores themes central to Florencia’s practice: the perception of time, death, and parallel realities. In this generative installation, an algorithm deconstructs and reconfigures the human form, echoing a profound near-death experience the artist had as a child—when she drowned in a swimming pool and was revived by her father. That moment of disembodiment became the seed for this piece, transforming the viewer’s interaction into a spiritual, almost otherworldly encounter.
Florencia’s research investigates how we, as humans, adapt and respond to the evolving presence of media and consciousness in a technologically mediated world.
”I SEEK TO NAVIGATE THE CONFLUENCE OF ART, AWARENESS AND TECHNOLOGY. TO EXPRESS AND QUESTION THE TENSION THAT EXISTS IN THE DIALOGUE BETWEEN THE HUMAN, THE ARTIFICIAL AND NATURE” Florencia S.M. Brück
