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.

Trough a process of re- activating discarded spaces, techniques, tools and materials, processes of  political decision making are highlighted. Who decides and for what reasons, why something becomes obsolete, is  the underlying question.   Full text available on the project is available at:  https://polipapers.upv.es/index.php/aniav/issue/view/1038/397   page 35-48 Decisive Line.

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. The piece is constructed from manually stretched silver threads that reprodu...
