The artist questions and pushes the boundaries between disciplines in order to reflect on the dynamics of power that affect knowledge. Thus, art is presented as a powerful monster capable of pointing to the weak points in these boundaries: a monster who tells the truth or, at the very least, who points to the person telling it.
In the room, the architectural conception of Arvo Pärt’s music is translated into a large structure built for an attentive listening. The device was designed in collaboration with the Olga Subirós Studio, turning the space into a portal or a chapel for sound experimentation while fostering a transcendent experience of sound capable of connecting the visitor with a mystical dimension that is often inaccessible.
