Piece created in Artist Residency at Centre ARBAR 2021. Premiere 2022 A careful translation of shared thinking. An applied sketch of becoming and generating-with. Intertwined trail walkers. A silhouette of the reflexive encounter, in its most mundane condition. Becoming what the other suggests. Accepting the proposal of subjectivity. Apprising the way in which everything is addressed to each other. Opening versions like books, in the exercise of string figures, speculating with stories so they can be on going The Knots We Knot (Action)︎︎︎ Trailer ︎︎︎ https://adrianavilaguevara.com/Dilution Thu, 30 Sep 2021 16:43:40 +0000 Adriana Vila Guevara https://adrianavilaguevara.com/Dilution DILUTION | DILUCIÓN Spain-Venezuela | 2022 | in development | 16mm digital screening | 5min Reduced to her essence, she quests, she embodies the “Growing Downwards” of the Tao in the eyes of U. Le Guin. She finds a path as a mirror. Evoque’s her own reflection. Recognizes herself in the unfolding, makes it her own. She oscillates subtle. https://adrianavilaguevara.com/Crisialida Fri, 29 Oct 2021 17:54:16 +0000 Adriana Vila Guevara https://adrianavilaguevara.com/Crisialida Crisialida Spain / 2021 / Film performance 4x16mm projectors / 35min (variable time) In the form of a filmic performance blending light and sound in a poetic way, this piece follows the metamorphosis of an erased and damaged woman, who progressively heals and mutates. A raw and subtle sensory experience -immersive and intimate at once-, the performance invites the audience into an existential process of transformation. Fractured by a society that confuses her, dismantles her, forces her to respond, act up, and live, while being completely subjugated by him, his schemes and laws. Crisialida embraces the very essence of a crisis and its critical break, going back to the center. That of the cocoon, the uterus and the cave. Here is where the inner retreat occurs: is it a return, a beginning or an end? It is the morphosis that determines the birth of a body, of its extensions and wings. Still deformed and encapsulated, it is a body presented while striving for an emancipation soon to take place. LIVE PERFORMANCE LOOP Festival. La Pedrera.

A pathway through the main elements -earth, wáter, air-, until the conjunction of fire, where the fith occurs. A displaced, decoded, sensorial cinematographic experience. Inviting who attends into its heart and axis, where each one becomes another indispensable element, co-responsible, co-creating in each step. Where the singular becomes conscious of the common. A transition in between pilgrimage, alchemy and reverie.

Docs Kingdom. Casa das Artes  (Arcos de Vadevez) 2021 This installation is the exposure of the creative process of E/W/AK, a site specific performance piece created in residency at Doc’s Kingdom (Arcos de Valdevez 2021). Focused on the phenomenological relations between nature (particulary the 5 elements earth, water, air, fire, ether) and cinema, becoming (in its live dimension) a collective ceremony. The exhibition, that also emerges from the artist residency, digs into the details of the frames that expand the traces of nature, exposing the intimacy of each step that the artist took in order to create the piece. From the gathering and mapping of geolocalized natural elements, the creation of a 16mm film 122mts long in an improvised dark room, using Man Ray’s rayogram techniques, lab notes, processing recipes, classification of the organic material and its simple beauty, as well as a video documentation of the burring of the film in a 122mts long hole in the ground (earth), hand opened by the artist during the residency. This installation and performance can be developed in each site where it is invited as a site specific piece.
