Night in a Remote Cabin Lit by a Kerosene Lamp

26.05.15 > 10.09.15

PRESS RELEASE: ENG | CAST

[ENG]Night in a Remote Cabin Lit by a Kerosene Lamp (2015) is a short videographic correspondence in which the construction of shelters in nature, those precarious structures in which one could hardly survive for one night, is being used as  as an excuse to start a conversation. Lúa Coderch compiles and invents stories and images, pointing at absences and making comments about them,  in order to try to produce a place where they meet. She intends to create a society that is no more than the sum of the viewer’s attention and hers, coinciding at a point in space or time.

[CAST] Night in a Remote Cabin Lit by a Kerosene Lamp (2015) es una breve correspondencia videográfica en la que la construcción de refugios en la naturaleza, precarias estructuras que servirían apenas para sobrevivir una noche, sirve de excusa para iniciar una conversación. Lúa Coderch recopila e inventa historias e imágenes, que emfatizan la ausencia y, a la vez, nos hablan de ella, con el fin de tratar de producir un lugar donde ambas se encuentren en un punto en el espacio o el tiempo y con la intención de crear una sociedad que no es más que la suma de la atención del espectador y la de la artista.
