Altera Natura (2026) Edition of 15 Description: Cicero sums up an ancient idea this way: habit, repeated long enough, stops feeling chosen and starts feeling natural. It is forged day by day until it becomes part of how you move through the world. Altera Natura starts from there. The style of this piece is the sediment of a practice: a visual world that, through countless attempts, is becoming a territory of its own. Spend enough time in front of a canvas and that world settles into you. What you do with your time becomes the nature you inhabit. We are born with a first nature: the ground we did not choose. Body, temperament, the raw material of who we are. Second nature is what we cultivate afterward, when we begin to know ourselves. Think of it as a garden behind the house. Not the front yard of inheritance, but a plot that starts almost empty and fills, slowly, with what we plant through habit. That garden is our alternative. It is free of outside scripts only to the degree that we keep choosing what grows there. That implies responsibility and also comfort. If second nature is built through actions, it can also be shaped. In difficult times we do not always control what comes our way, but we can rely on what we have already internalized. That habit is the refuge we return to, and which, with patience, like a seed taking root, propels us toward better times. How do you choose what your Altera Natura will be? Are you planting the right seeds in your garden? Consuetudo quasi altera natura. Habit is almost a second nature. by @tormius
Instauratio Magna (2026) Edition of 15 — Sold Out. Description: Francis Bacon used the title Instauratio Magna for his project of renewing human knowledge: questioning inherited ideas and finding a new way forward. At the center of this piece lies my own Instauratio Magna. A fire in my home earlier this year forced me to start over in ways I had not expected. As the house was cleared and rebuilt, I also began to reconsider routines, assumptions, and habits I had carried with me for years. The fire became a clearing of the ground, both literally and personally. One of its clearest effects appeared in my work. For years, I had focused almost entirely on my identity as an artist, leaving my identity as a designer aside. Art had come to carry the full weight of who I was, creating a pressure that often led to creative blocks. After the fire, something shifted. It broke an invisible creative inertia and helped me let go of rules I had been following mostly out of habit. I began to see art and design not as competing identities, but as different parts of the same practice. Art is an essential part of who I am, but it no longer has to contain everything. For a long time, I had felt stuck within Tormius, my artistic project, always trying to define what truly represented me as an artist but never quite reaching the ideal I had in mind. While my home was being rebuilt, I spent months reconsidering how I worked, how I saw myself, and what I wanted my practice to become. I tend to do this kind of work in the shadows, slowly taking things apart before finding a new way forward. This piece represents that new beginning. It brings together the first principles of a visual language that finally feels like my own. The absurd characters and imaginary world that have always lived in my head are now emerging with greater confidence and plenty of room to evolve. This piece marks the beginning of a new path of exploration, first shaped in Rio de Janeiro during the Rio Art Residency, and now sealed by fire. Fire Walk With Me. by @tormius

Harmony 🔗 firstoftheroll.xyz When you start a new roll of film, the first frame is exposed to ambient light during the camera-loading process. This leads to the film being “burned” leaving blank space as part of the final image. Photographers @nev.in.color and @alexkittoephotos have compiled hundreds of these photos from rolls of film over the years so that, in collaboration with @tormius, these characteristic burn marks could be transformed into a dual-media piece that blends photography and digital painting. by @tormius
