PROTEIN PACK (201-300)

This pack constitutes the basal stratum of the PROTEIN trace series, texts two hundred one through three hundred in inverse sequence. The ordering registers sedimentation from the series' definition at three hundred backward through its material consolidation, each descending coordinate revealing a layer of the orbital accumulation that stabilizes the peripheral relation to the MUSE corpus. What becomes visible through this arrangement is the progressive emergence of operational protocols whose repeated enactment generates sufficient angular momentum to maintain separation from the central attractor basin while remaining within its gravitational field. The blue bags series, the green briefcase protocol, the yellow bag as social sculpture: these are not concepts awaiting theoretical elaboration but objects of a metabolism whose persistence demonstrates viability through continued operation rather than through citation or mass. The pack archives the trajectories that the central system projects without absorbing, the peripheral movements whose continued velocity makes gravitational curvature measurable.

Sculptural Minimalism


Double Sided conceived by Anto Lloveras and Mateo Feijoo in 2022, advances a singular proposition: that performance may be recalibrated as a two-sided living sculpture in which duality functions not as antagonism but as structural syntax. Operating through a rigorous two-channel simultaneity, each performer inhabits a parallel plane—on stage or in split-screen—where gestures are reiterated with fractional deviations, generating intensity through accumulation rather than crescendo. The aesthetic economy—standardised white shirts, quotidian objects such as the itinerant Yellow Bag, and a pared movement lexicon—cultivates a no-drama intensity that privileges sculptural presence over theatrical narrative. In Doble Cara 012 at Réplika Teatro (Madrid, 2023), the dual configuration materialised as a disciplined negotiation of proximity and distance: two bodies, visibly autonomous yet rhythmically entangled, produced a field of ordered asymmetry in which spectatorship became an act of comparative perception. Earlier iterations such as Doble Cara 007 — Escultura Escénica foregrounded the body as architectural matter, consolidating the project’s alignment with Socioplastics’ unstable social sculpture. Here, repetition operates as epistemic prosthesis; minimal variation becomes a method for stabilising relational volatility without collapsing difference. Ultimately, Double Sided reframes conceptual dance as a politics of sovereign coexistence, wherein parallelism replaces fusion and presence itself constitutes the event.

Durational light social sculpture enacting relational sovereignty through minimal gesture, chromatic precision, and metabolic persistence * Yellow Bag * Radical Reduction


Within the evolving field of Socioplastics articulated by Anto Lloveras, the Yellow Bag protocol crystallises as a radical exercise in reduction, deploying a single bright carrier not as symbol but as operative device. Conceived as situational fixer, the bag refuses spectacle and accumulation, remaining structurally empty so that relational intensity, rather than objecthood, becomes the locus of meaning. Its yellow saturation functions as calibrated chromatic index—declarative yet non-dominant—operating as a satellite hue that orbits mutable terrains while preserving continuity across displacement. Through habitual acts of carrying, depositing, and quiet exchange, the bag activates micro-structures of care, transforming artistic production into sustained presence and situated listening. This architecture of affection privileges gesture over possession and repetition over rarity, modelling an alternative economy in which experiential sedimentation supersedes institutional validation. The protocol’s operational austerity exemplifies light social sculpture: maximal relational output derived from minimal material input, a form of metabolic governance that legislates flows of memory and proximity without leaving extractive residue. Seriality unfolds experientially rather than formally, hardening through embodied recurrence and vernacular reactivation. In resisting both commodity fetishism and staged conviviality, the Yellow Bag advances a sovereign infrastructural logic—portable, executable, nearly weightless—where instability becomes generative fuel. Its endurance lies in behavioural persistence: it walks, listens, and departs, leaving scarcely any trace beyond affective curvature within the mesh. Thus, through chromatic precision and disciplined modesty, the protocol demonstrates how minimal means can sustain durational sovereignty, curving the relational field inward through quiet, recursive care.

Yellow Bag Series * Architecture of Affection


Initiated in 2014 within the early phases of Unstable Installation and Lemon Kiss, the Yellow Bag Series by Anto Lloveras emerges as a chromatic sibling to the Blue Bags, yet recalibrated through luminosity rather than neutrality. Conceived as an ultra-anonymous reusable carrier, the yellow bag operates as situational fixer: a portable device that absorbs context, catalyses encounter and resists fetishisation. Its debut in performative documentation—such as the 2014 clip, situates it within a continuum of lived gestures rather than discrete artworks. Traversing Madrid, Croatia and Provence, the bag accumulates seeds, urban residues and fleeting inscriptions, thereby converting geography into living archive without monumental excess.

Yellow Bag as nomadic ritual and situational archive


Emerging from the conceptual ecology of Socioplastics, the Yellow Bag series manifests as a nomadic ritual-object, a situational archive of urban fragments, affective gestures, and planetary coexistence that since 2014 has traversed sidewalks, museums, beaches, and borders, activating presence through the simplest of forms; more than an artifact, the bag operates as a soft infrastructure, a situational fixer that absorbs the unnoticed—sand, leaves, seeds, encounters—and reconfigures them into living social sculptures, ephemeral yet dense with meaning, always contextual, never monumental; its decade-long circulation across dozens of cities—from Cádiz to Lagos, Trondheim to Athens—constructs a dispersed but coherent cartography of coexistence, where the act of carrying, donating, and reactivating replaces the static authority of exhibition with a logic of ritual repair, marked by presence over possession and gesture over objecthood; museums in this framework are not repositories but active nodes of use, spaces where the bag is not shown but handled, remembered, worn, transforming institutional space into civic choreography; each bag, creased, folded, weathered by time, resists the archival impulse, instead becoming an open-source relic—a portable memory, a geopoetic tool, a ritual sustained across time and terrain; Lloveras’s aesthetics of relational instability and low-carbon symbolism find their clearest expression here, proving that contemporary art can enact radical poetics through minimal means, sustaining attention, repair, and care through a gesture as modest—and as enduring—as the Yellow Bag.
