Catarina Miranda has been developing fictional discourses, whose languages intersect dance, voice, scenography and light, approaching the body as a vehicle for hypnagogic transformation and awareness of the present.

Poromechanics is a collection of video portraits of artists depicted as oracles. The initiative to portrait different artists, who are filmed moments after being subjected to states of immersion through physical and sound activation, potentiates the idea of accessing the “black boxes” of these visionary bodies, promoting the activation of the parasympathetic nervous system and the appearance of subconscious speeches. In an attempt to reclaim the flesh and individual hypnagogic hallucinations, each body is depicted as a soothsayer (the one who tells the truth), returning the manifestation of their gestures on camera.

The Poromechanics exhibition and the Cabriqimera show are results of the same field of investigation.
