| Another kitchen is possible 2010 / 9 min. / 4:3 / Language: Spanish Premiere: DO IT YOURSELF II with a performance by Nieves Correa OFF LIMITS, Madrid, 2010 a day without octopus or minced meat Another kitchen is possible makes fun of the avalanche of videos in which meat or fish is carved with a huge knife and blood dripping all over the place. Inspired on the one hand by Martha Rosler's legendary performance "Semiotics of the Kitchen" (1975) and on the other hand by John Cage's "Living Room Music" (1940), the author creates a concert performance in the space of her kitchen, using everything within reach, from the fridge door to the blender cutting water. A kind of sound game in which nothing edible is ever seen or appears - a day without octopus or minced meat. |

Paradigm The paradigm is a model of thinking or a way of approach with which reality is analysed and investigated. Based on a scientific demand it claims to be the true picture of reality - but in general it leads to modification or change of reality itself. Macro-images of the interior or of different parts of flutes alternating with panoramic recordings of clouds and sunbeams provide the visual background to reflect on the personal circumstances of the artist living in an environment of a language that is not the mother tongue. The purely aural aspect of languages or the confusion arising from thinking or communicating in two languages is articulated in dreams or situations experienced by the artist, which she narrates simultaneously overlapping Spanish and German. As a link between the images and the spoken texts, the flute improvisations, the music, act as a universal language. |

extract from the video My Spanish planet |
My Spanish planet Scientists from the Ulysses mission, in which the American and European space agencies - NASA and ESA - collaborate to study the Sun, have verified that the sounds generated in the depths of our star shake and make the Earth vibrate by sympathy. And they have determined that both the Earth's magnetic field and atmosphere play a part in this "cosmic chorus". |

POESIA PERDIDA economy, women, culture The economic crisis is having a powerful impact all over the world, with very different effects. While a large part of the world's population is impoverished, the number of millionaires is growing steadily, even in the midst of the crisis. Removing the smoke from a stark reality interrupts, distorts and destroys any attempt to create a poetic look at the world. All data, statistics and texts used in this video are available to anyone interested. |
