Estem treballant per a vosaltres

The company José y sus hermanas will work with a group of artists selected in Art Jove Creació 2023, in artistic residency at Santa Mònica for four days in July.

The work process will deal with the concepts of capsule and nucleus applied to a synthetic dynamic of collective creation. Based on these two concepts, the potential of the dynamics established in a collective will be highlighted: singularity is transformed, contagious and intermingled to generate a new poetics of what is common (common applied to that which belongs to or extends to different people, and common understood as that which is ordinary, vulgar, frequent and well known). With the audiovisual recording of the work sessions, the creation of a diary and the sharing of the reflections that emerge, an archive of capsules and nuclei will be created).

At the end of the four days, the artists of the Sala d'Art Jove will present the material produced in the process to the public. The exhibition will take place on Tuesday 18 July at the Santa Mònica during the Art Nou Festival.

José y sus hermanas are a collective of five artists: Alejandro Curiel, Marta Díaz, Glòria Ribera, Gemma Polo and Carolina Manero, who aim to enable the spectator to establish new correlations while looking, to discover that they cannot trust what they see. They try to activate this part that forces us to search for and discover something new, to re-signify what we are looking at and thus endow it with new meanings. They look for images, spaces and questions that flee from hegemonic thought and form. José and his sisters emerges from the desire to generate something utopian. It is not about caricaturing reality or denouncing certain characters. They enjoy looking at the world and observing that which they were not able to imagine before; that which can also be beautiful.
