the thought, the impulse, the ARTIST statement

Keixpa is not an identity, but a latency—a fictional figure that embodies the tension between what has been shaped to remain hidden and what insists on emerging. Her presence is not a mask, but a gesture: a fragment, a trace, a visual resistance to the logic of clarity, impact, and resolution.

Working through photography, print, text, and material gestures, Keixpa explores how intimate, social, and professional structures shape our presence and silence what is genuine. Her work resists spectacle and favors friction: what appears is often partial, interrupted, or veiled—not to obscure, but to protect.

This is not a practice of polished concepts or visual proofs. It is an embodied space of thought, where what remains unnamed demands presence. To fragment is to resist. To filter is to begin to exist. The image becomes residue, not product—a trace of what dares to come through.

What guides this process is not visibility, but insistence. What remains unnamed, unpolished, undomesticated also deserves to be seen.
