NOCHE DE PISCOLABIS, work in progress︎

[ESP] Invitación a una cena performance en la que se reflexiona sobre eventos sociales de la clase alta Colombiana, en los que se evidencian códigos culturales que condicionan a la mujer a ciertos roles y que perpetúan una narrativa artificial y exagerada del compartimiento, gestos y apariencias. Proyecto colaborativo con el equipo del Restaurante RIO con quiénes se diseñará una experiencia performática en torno a la comida y a la forma como se sirve.

[ENG] Transatlantic Disco Boat is an international collective experience that creates a reason for people to listen and dance together to music. It is an audio staged party with a live DJ set. The dramaturgy of the party is followed by the storyline of a “disco boat” that is traveling through the world of music - Cumbia, Reggae, Rap, Dance, Romantic, Techno, POP and so on. The “disco boat” takes the participants into a journey to demonstrate the liquid state of music, by exploring the clashes and appropriations in different cultures. During the performance the participants are guided with dancing instructions performed by the DJ and other performers who belong to particular dance cultures. Scores to dance romantically with a partner, to dance enthusiastically, to dance sexy on one's own, to follow the waves of the sea, and so on.

Participants can engage in the “disco boat” with their bodies through dancing, to share rhythms, to connect and to combine energy from one to another. The journey on the boat is a reason to express together joy, release, sensuality, love and unity.

CONTINUUM, 2021

Online performative dialogue by Cristina Maldonado (Mex) and Isa Juchniewicz (Poland)

[ESP] “Una pieza que re-imagina los medios de comunicación para despertar al cuerpo y encontrarnos con el otro. El aislamiento prolongado nos deja clara la necesidad que tenemos del otro para existir. Es la presencia del otro quien conjura nuestra propia presencia. Propone un espacio simbólico que acumula presencias del público y los intérpretes para formar identidades temporales y efímeras” -Maldonado y Juchniewicz.

[ENG] A piece that re-imagines media to awaken the body and meet the other. Prolonged isolation shows us the need we have for the other to exist. It is the presence of the other that invokes our own presence. It proposes a symbolic space that accumulates presences of the public and the performers to form temporary and ephemeral identities.

DO YOU KNOW A PLACE THAT DOESN´T EXIST ANYMORE, 2022

Participatory performance by Mara Ingea (Lebanon)

[ESP] Los recuerdos están vinculados a los lugares, pero ¿cuál es el verdadero poder de esta conexión cuando las arquitecturas del pasado resurgen y traen momentos especiales? Una invitación a correr el riesgo de recordar. Arriesgarse a recuperar detalles, sensaciones y emociones ligadas a lugares que se perdieron. Es una invitación a compartir y rendir homenaje a lugares, porciones de espacio, rincones del pasado.

︎ Santiago Iregui

[ENG] Memories are linked to places, but what is the true power of this connection when architectures from the past resurface and bring along special moments? An invitation to take the risk of remembering. To risk bringing back details, sensations and emotions linked to places that got lost. It is an invitation to share and pay tribute to places, portions of space, corners of the past.

LA SEÑORA MENUDENCIA / CARAS AND ME, 2013

"La revista número uno en estilo de vida y sociedad de Colombia. CARAS tiene estilo, mucho estilo"

The imposed rules to be chic or beautiful.
Plasticity vs. myself.
My skin transformed to be exhibited in a social lifestyle magazine. The digital elimination of freckles and moles, as they are considered out of the beauty norm. My face covered by at least 4 layers of make-up. Dress and shoes that are not mine, but are chosen to depict who I am.
Appearances to fit, to be accepted.
An article about me, and my job.
An article against me and in collision with my job.
