UNBROKEN (Iconoclash) Biennale Internationale de Casablanca

Unbroken (Iconoclash)
3rd Bienal Casablanca, Morocco, 2016















“Unbroken” is conceived as a fictional essay film addressing human perception of and interaction with personal and collective memory in relation, or in opposition, to history. A complex and twisted editing of images, together with the sound of rewritten fragments based on George Orwell’s 1984 and José Luis Borges’ Funes the Memorious, draft a narrative of memory, in contradicting ways, caught between hypermnesia and the wish to erase everything -set in a time where the future has already past and the past continues to be present.

The project is articulated around Taller March , a former craft workshop space in the Carmen neighborhood of València, reactivated as a place for production and active thought.

Mirando desde el atalaya

  Looking from the Watchtower”   was born from the reactivation of a workshop that had been silent for years, threatened by urban pressure and speculative policies. There, through a slow and complex process of manually stretching fine silver, I create threads that become the basis for small sculptures. This patient work allows me to resist the accelerated and impersonal logic of industrial production. Each piece is both memory and transformation: a gesture of healing and a way of opposing the power narratives that attempt to erase spaces and experiences. “Mirando desde el Atalaya”  nace de la reactivación de un taller que llevaba años en silencio, amenazado por la presión urbanística y las políticas de especulación. Allí, a través de un proceso lento y complejo de estiramiento manual de plata fina, genero hilos que se convierten en la base de pequeñas esculturas.
