Opening: Wednesday August 23th FACTO 10 brings together artists from various countries in South and North America, engaging in a dialogue with the curatorial concept of transdisciplinary nature in metamorphosis through contemporary languages such as digital art, sound art, photography, game art, artificial intelligence, installations, nano-art and video. This exhibition addresses the transformations of everyday life in the interaction with digital media and virtual environments in art, science and technology The notions of nature and metamorphosis are rooted in the ideas of Emanuele Coccia (2021). We are always born in another body: this is precisely what we call nature; being born is adding a link in the chain of transformation of life; each species is the metamorphosis of all those that preceded it; the same life moulds itself into a new body and a new form in order to exist in a different form. The works in the festival delve into the diversity and uniqueness of life, the way nature permeates us, because in each of us resides a community of small living beings. Ultimately, as Ailton Krenak (2020) posits, life exists within us and not outside. The works also explore sustainability, from regional biomes, the energy of volcanoes, sensory bodies, to the depths of the oceans and their enduring resistance. Nature in Metamorphosis is the result of the occurrences, life experiences, struggles, and collaborations of humans and non-humans cohabiting the same planet
