SMITH navigates between photography, moving images, installation, sculpture, and performance. His work is organized into open cycles, often initiated by photography. Within these cycles, he dismantles all chronology, shifts the boundaries between portrait and landscape, and opens a space where the human, animal, plant, mineral, and celestial realms intertwine. His work is permeated by a poetics of metamorphosis that transcends the realm of the real, traversing the spaces of in-betweenness, inhabiting thresholds rather than certainties. Forms slip, identities shift, bodies transform, and perception changes. From fluctuating states of consciousness, ranging from trance to psychedelics, SMITH weaves a network of correspondences between bodily and cognitive practices and experimental scientific and technological devices, searching for a point of contact where spirituality, sensitivity, and technology are recomposed.
