Pep Duran
Mudo [Mute], 2004, [8:08]
Duran investigates the relationship between sound and image driven narration. The video begins in a small room with sound. Little by little the room fills with people and the sound dissipates to silence. Duran has created the appearance that the people entering the space are displacing the sound. A voice off-screen describes exactly what we are seeing without giving any more information than what we can see with our own eyes. The paradox: if what we see is what they say then why is the image necessary?
Mabel Palacín
Sur l’autoroute [On the highway], 1999, [13:09]
Palacin’s work dwells between fact and fiction. She uses simple silhouettes from the tradition of shadow puppet theatre, to create a surreal road movie. The video is a dramatic tale about an individual navigating a complex reality where things do not always appear to be what they are.
Tere Recarens
Helicopter-peas, 2004, [3:03]
This short video shows the artist visiting her family in their little town near La Selva, some 70 miles north of Barcelona. Recarens arrives at her family property via helicopter. The video shows Tere preparing dinner together with her parents followed by a dinner conversation. The dialogue is focused on her concerns of her being a thirty-something year old artist living and working in Barcelona.
