Faculty of Fine Arts, Polytechnic University of Valencia – UPV, Valencia, Spain
Material: public toilet, ladder, ice cubes, candle, sound of a falling drop, naked body, gaze.
Eschatology of side effects.
What is the power of a drop of water on ice?
How does the power system inhibit us?
How do we relate to other people understood as alien to us?
Do we have a circular or linear idea of existence and the world we live in?
Water and its noise are transformed and crystallised.
Trapped in ice they become eternal and ephemeral at the same time.
In desire we come closer.
Desire resonates in our guts and reverberates in our heads.
The curiosity of discovery passes into action, to enter a suspended darkness, dense with expectations and visions.
Naked before the unfolding of events, naked before nature and in our own nature, naked before the gaze of the other. We are naked before choice, unadorned in our infinite smallness. Yet we are together, connected, resonating.
Resonating within ourselves, resonating together, resonating with the world we live in.
