This performance takes place as a revisited version of the original "You: expansion of the self". It was first presented as a site-specific piece during the opening of "Collective Aesthetics”, Artsted's first physical exhibition, held at Scalo Lambrate (The Sanctuary, Milan) and curated by Pelin Zeytinci. 
This work brings the concept explored through its precursor one step forward. On May 14 SINTETICO performed the tattoo on one person willing to join him on stage using distilled water. She didn't know what the tattoo would be as this was executed free-machine at the artist's discretion during the show. The resulting mark healed over time leaving nothing but the recorded experience. This was minted as a NFT, which was later displayed at VOLTA Art Fairs during Art Basel and is now available on Artsted.com.
The bodily score became a temporary and transitional mean for achieving the Expansion of Lera, the only certified and re-accessible output of that night, contained in the form of POV-recorded footage within the microSDXC of the camera she had attached to her forehead during the experience.
