Trans*Plant is a transdisciplinary project that utilizes living systems and is based on self-experimentation: it is a process that involves a ‘human > plant’ transition in various formats. The performance in the Kapelica Gallery (2017) is based on an intravenous chlorophyll transfusion. It is conceived as a collective ritual that crystallizes the process before and after it. An intravenous one, which through fears, fantasies and judgments that it generates, opens the debate on the identity system. Obtaining a pure molecule of chlorophyll is as hard as getting testosterone from the pharmaceutical and biomedical industry or the legal and health system. All life is patented.
