Col·lectiu 1080

Col·lectiu 1080 is a research collective resident at the Santa Mònica arts centre, currently formed by Adrià Guardiola, Lola Clavo, Marla Jacarilla, Mònica Rovira and Renan Camilo.

It investigates the audiovisual in a broad sense, especially in its relations with the contemporary context: production, reception, discourses, language and temporalities of an image in which the members of the collective live, which they themselves produce and which they constantly mutate.

On Tuesdays of video, it programmes open sessions in which it seeks a dialogue between the image and critical thought.

Adrià Guardiola Rius, who clearly doesn't know what he wants in life, moves between academy and practice as if he were the only one who does. Director, filmmaker and cinematographer, graduated in Cinematography at ESCAC and currently a PhD student at the Universitat Pompeu Fabra with a research on the relationship between cinema, whales and politics. He has presented research at international conferences and has published academic articles, both written and in video-essay format. In the world of the working jungle, she has worked on documentaries such as Soy Georgina for Netflix and Moto GP Unlimited for Amazon Prime, among other projects.

Lola Clavo is a filmmaker, teacher and intimacy coordinator. She graduated in Film Directing from ESCAC (2007) and holds an MA in Fiction Directing from Goldsmiths University of London (2012), under a grant from the Fundación la Caixa. With a working philosophy close to DIY (do it yourself), Clavo understands filmmaking from a collaborative and queer perspective, which led her to form the experimental collective Exotica Loom in 2012. Specialising in the portrayal of intimacy, the body and sexuality, she complements her artistic projects with teaching in the Masters in Directing at ESCAC and the Coordination of Intimacy for the audiovisual and performing arts. She is currently part of the audiovisual research group in residence at the Santa Mònica, Collective 1080.

Marla Jacarilla (Alcoy, 1980) Visual artist, writer and film critic. She develops her work through techniques such as performance, video art and installations. She is constantly looking for links between plastic art, new technologies and literature to develop a fragmented narrative sprinkled with fiction that the spectator is invited to recompose. She has participated in group exhibitions at MACBA, Fundació Tàpies, Fabra i Coats Centre d'Art Contemporani, Centre d'Art La Panera, La Capella and Centre del Carme, among others. She is currently a member of the editorial team of Filmtopia, a website specialising in films made by women.

Renan Camilo is a translator and curator. He graduated in Philology and Literature and in Film Curating. He produced the audiovisual essay Já não se trata de pintar as coisas definidas and was production coordinator and translator of dramaturgical texts at the Portal de Dramaturgia. He was production assistant and curator for the parallel activities of the Barcelona Independent Film Festival, l'Alternativa. He participated in the curatorial process of the exhibition Zin Ex. Cuerpo y arquitectura at the Tabakalera Cultural Centre. At Santa Mònica he took part in the exhibition Utopia Rambles and is currently a member of Collective 1080, an audiovisual research group. In 2023 he received the Sala d'Art Jove curatorial grant.
