Confusion

An interactive symbolic work consisting of a wire brain construction is presented. By interlacing it with metal wire, a good conductor of electricity, emphasis is placed on the function of the brain as a neural network, where thousands of neuronal synapses take place. The human body produces electricity, the brain's electrical chemical signals, light is memory and darkness is forgetting. The gradual decrease in the intensity of light produced in the facility, as regulated by the dimmer, symbolizes the gradual decline of the cognitive functions of the human brain. As it increases, it causes shadows on the paper, sudden flashes of automatic recollection of past experiences. Photography is the imprint on a material medium of an event in the external world, but the motive behind it is man's need to keep the experienced emotion alive.

EX-SITU [existing situations]. Destruction as an social-artistic practice.
Views: 1661

EX-SITU[existing situations] is an interactive installation that incorporates a computer, sound, and lighting technologies in which users/ viewers take part in the destruction of the painting by stepping on it. At the same time, a motion tracking system marks visitors and a light spot tracks them.​
The content of EX SITU calls for awareness of social indifference, self-promotion, and their impact on society. The structure of EX SITU is intentionally ambiguous, revealing the obsession/fascination for the protection of material in contrast with the empathy for other people.
The interactive installation underlines the responsibility of individuals in society. The theoretical part analyses the Destruction in Art Symposium in 1966 and The bystander effect, or bystander apathy, in which individuals are less likely to offer help to a victim when other people are present.

Quarantine Self Portait
Views: 1096

The quarantine's experience time has functioned as a humanized time. Its previous social barbarity was imprisoned in the familiar cage of my soul and became my creation time. Each day was my friend, an eternal circular and dynamic present, a consciousness without conflicts. It was like an eternity that is experienced differently every moment. An unprecedented form of stillness gripped me and perpetuated in many abstract fragments which finally formed the new texture of my existence, in this peculiar isolation. I became from the carcass of time I was before, its qualitative disintegration… Reality was distorted and experienced illusively. The time from the alienation that was before, was transformed and became the cover for the scratched truth of myself. This kind of time my conscience had dreamed to live.

Aynadamar: An important place as far back as when the Arabs were in the area. The whole region of Andalusia was supplied with water through that spring, reaching as far as Madrid. Several years later, the poet and playwright Federico Garcia Lorca is taken there to be executed. His work in turn supplied the whole Spain and spread to the rest of the world. The documentary intertwines significant events of his life with dramatised excerpts from his work, aiming at achieving Duende (as Lorca used to say), the quintessence of all things.
