Understanding the territory as a complex construct in which relationships are woven with the natural, social, economic, political and cultural, we propose a metaphorical exploration of a common place for all participants: a classroom, the scene of experiences that transform the life trajectory of individuals.
This speculative experiment explores a future ecosystem under rigorous control, set in a speculative simulation 30 years in the future. In this vision, artificial intelligence and synthetic biology collaborate to create an optimized environment for cultivated species.
The exhibition arose in Manizales as an initiative to promote the recognition and appreciation of the biological, cultural and artistic heritage of the city. It focuses on collective memory as a fundamental resource that links people with their environment and promotes the conservation of natural heritage.
In the age of the digital image, we must ask ourselves what we are looking at when we look at a work of art. Contemporary creativity is a continuous aesthetic drift in which different disciplines converge to generate a collective imaginary that is the disembodied result of the diverse ways of creating in the 21st century.
In the new geological era of the Anthropocene, marked by a rapid extinction of species, this project seeks to raise awareness about the planetary crisis. Through collaborative workshops, such as the one carried out at the San Miguel School (Hortaleza - Madrid), reflection and action are encouraged, involving children in the exploration of creative ways to communicate and address the extinction of species.

His research focuses on the darkness that modernity throws in all directions, both on the pasts it devastates, the othernesses it denies in the present time, but also on the futures it cannot imagine.
To pollinate is to fertilize, it is the way plants make love and reproduce. A plant has neither hands nor feet and it is very difficult for it to find a mate and even more difficult for it to have sex, so it uses pollinators to get its male cells to the ovules of another plant and fertilize it, and have sex at a distance.
Without atmosphere there is no life. This thin gaseous varnish allows us to exist as we float in infinity and experience the taste of chocolate, tickling, pain or an orange.
This exhibition is part of a series that uses 3D scans through photogrammetry to interpret landscapes, converting light measurements into representations of trees, geography and flora.
On February 22nd, 2019, the implosion of the Monaco building, owned by Pablo Escobar, took place, generating a debate on historical memory and the denial of the conflict.

S. Holbrook.
Work: "Estrés: los cuerpos y las cosas" (2023) - Enric Maurí (Stress: bodies and things)
Spain
The waters of the Han River run through the images of the video from the first scenes. They merge with an overflowing frenzy about programmed obsolescence, compulsive consumption and the body itself as another object on which to speculate.

Deep Listening in the Heart of the Volcano
Jorge Barco 2023
Geomancies is a project that explores the connections between nature, technology, sound and the cosmic through the exploration of the vibratory forces of the earth. This version of the project for the International Image Festival brings together the research of the last 4 years in a kind of mineral concert; field recordings of the vibration of water, wind, stones and electromagnetic signals, most of them made in the Nevado del Ruiz Volcano, will be amplified through a series of sound objects built with analog electronics, and geological materials generating resonances and movements.
