To start with Loren is a pseudonym, a persona for the context in which Loren exists and operates. Loren is made alive and authentic through lived experiences and relationships formed with other subjects. Hence, Loren is ontologically a relational subject. Loren speculates that Loren may cease to exist in the case of being exiled from the current social, political, and economical context.
Loren identifies as a militant researcher whose research methodology aligns with the critical engagement of revolutionary ‘potencia’ in Colectivo Situaciones‘s writing.
Quoting from Colectivo Situaciones:
“Militant research does not have an object. We are conscious of the paradoxical character of this statement – if there is research, something is being researched; if there is nothing to do research on, how can we talk about research? – and, at the same time, we are convinced that this character is precisely what gives potencia to the investigation.”
Loren initiates, facilitates, or produces relational experiences that can be participated as art. The participation can also generate discourses in relation to the expansive field of Art. Hence, Loren only comprehends and utilizes yet does not commit to any art historical medium or art historical lineage.
Since moving to the United States in 2021, Loren have been attempting to psychoanalyze history and geopolitics through deep dwelling in physical and digital spaces of historical psychosis. These historical psychosis can be induced by geological formations(ex.fault lines), deception/trickery(ex.spying), disasters(ex.wildfire), destruction(ex.war), coercion(ex.law), obliviation(ex.genocide)... and always a symptom of our condition.
This desire intensified after Loren moved to Southern California in 2025 experiencing hyper-militarized landscape and hyper-mediated quotidian life.
Quoting frugally from Norman O. Brown:
“the proper outcome of psychoanalysis is the abolition of the boundary.” which I add: “and borders”
