Serafín Álvarez
Some years ago, Serafín Álvarez decided to focus his attention on corridors as more than just an architectural and structural element. As he sees it, through the prism of science fiction, corridors function as a metaphor of the in-between, of connection, of travel, of a portal between different spaces or dimensions, of a journey between mental and physical states. A corridor is a transit zone but it also conditions a part of a journey that often goes unnoticed, precisely because it is merely connecting.
In conjunction with his participation in the exhibition Species of Spaces, SON[I]A talks to Serafín Álvarez about video games, the origins of his fixation on corridors as a fetish, and the use of digital media in contemporary art.
Ignacio Uriarte
Ignacio Uriarte talks about his daily routine as an artist, the demise of the physical office, the persistence of his imaginary, and about procrastination and over-compliance with rules as two different forms of resistance to imposed efficiency and productivity.
Luz Broto
Luz Broto talks about invisible forces, the space of art, negotiation, the visualization of processes, the poetics of politics, the art of the void, and her exquisite capacity to stick her nose where it doesn’t belong.
