We are an interdisciplinary collective in full search of a human and an artistic identity. For us, this search is a political tool; a way both to connect with reality and to resist the dizzying.
Deepening in ourselves, in who we feel we are, without wanting to articulate immediacy and the compulsion of that very same reality in which we are living. Comfortable results out of it, is something that liberates us and gives us hope.
With the digital society, a new social paradigm appears; and along with it, of course, the questions of who we are now, what kind of system or world we belong to and what position we take before it. We believe that the artistic fact (or at least the one we aim to investigate right now) arises from what happens when we ask these questions.
