My Advice to Eva - Installation view
Installation 2019
My Advice to Eva describes a seemingly normalized world, which analyzes a whole series of facts and situations full of doubts, questions and strangeness. Something that, from the digital and virtual spheres and using persuasive technology generates, in the perfect society, moods contrary to those it promotes: dissatisfaction, feeling of social maladjustment, frustration for achievements that are not easily achieved or simply a state of eternal tedium, which nourishes narcissism.
Plural Being. I am the others, the others are me - *Installation view Espai 13, Fundació Joan Miró, Barcelona
Installation 2017 (ES/NL)
Plural Being. I am the others, the others are me reflects the constant search for calm in a hectic society. Through a theme park scenario, the exhibition attempts to answer a series of questions about the times we live in, the things we yearn for, and the rewards we expect in return for our day-to-day efforts.
The installation that recreates a phantomscape through a series of sculptural elements, mantric sounds, suspended images and performative elements that plunge visitors into a space of sublimation and estrangement. A reflection on personal space and on the body as testing ground that questions the human condition in a hyperconnected era.
As they make their way through the room, visitors become aware of different voices that form part of the exhibition. A polyphony generated by the repetition of the titles of the works that creates an altered state of consciousness, over images that are represented as parodic acts but also exude humour, cynicism, and shreds of defeat.
GLOBAL WINDSHIELD THE MUSICAL - Exhibition documentation
2018, 18’55’’, colour sound
3channel video
(NL/ES)
Global Windshield, The Musical replicates the state of hypnosis produced by the prolonged driving in a highly predictable environment in order to rethink, propose and imagine preferable futures. A trip in a scenario in completely disconnection with nature that investigates from the most human the sensation of loss of control, failure and impotence. The songs in the video explore how we ignore the signs that manifest around us to live in a world anesthetized by the promises and hopes that technologies offer us. If the traces of our past have become virtual and our present is delivered to a world whose greatest treasure is the data archived as zeros and ones. What proportion of reality remains tangible?
