The artist metaphysics of Hélio Oiticica departs from the body to arrive at MUSIC, which he defines as a form of experience and art making beyond the own body and beyond art. In the text “O q Faço é MÚSICA” (What I do is MUSIC), Oiticica defines the term, written MUSIC as a world-totality that in other texts he represents by the image of the galaxy, with its bright points, and by the concept of World-Shelter, an aesthetic space that is filled by inventions from artists from many places and eras and, despite being discussed as space, it floats around the material world and time, as if it were another dimension. This article analyses the work of Hélio Oiticica in the light of the idea of expanding art towards MUSIC.
