Miwa Matreyek visited us in 2012 and left us completely mesmerized with her live performances, during which she manipulated a rear projection of her shadow to make it interact in real time with carefully selected elements, such as animations, shadows of objects, and other projected items. The result was a delightful scrupulously orchestrated choreography. In her latest creation, Infinitely Yours (which she released on a streaming platform from her own home during the quarantine), her richly layered art takes a step further. Matreyek explores a universal problem: the environmental crisis our planet is facing. In this moving, spectacular performance that will be projected on a number of selected walls in different locations of the city, Matreyek portrays a compelling allegoric story of the human actions that led us to collapse, with special attention the colossal dimensions of its consequences (oceans invaded by plastic, mountains of waste material resulting from irresponsible consumption) that still leaves a door open for hope.
Those attending this section of Desbordamientos are going to be able to enjoy a pairing of art and beer thanks to the collaboration of Cervezas Alhambra.
