At the other extreme of the dynamic range, the fireworks mark the dynamic climax with their loud intensity. The sound of the church bells approaching the passage of the procession and the applause and shouts of the people create a periodic background of medium dynamic intensity.

Earmaginations [silent videos] On-site June 3rd and online June 11th
Still (moving) life
Still (moving) life is a silent video that elaborates the still life tradition through the use of moving images. Flowers, plants and trees are the subject of the filming and their slow or fast movement becomes the object of observation by the viewer. The paradox of representation seeks to inspire a reflection on our way of observing and considering what is natural and what is artificial. The objective of the work is to tend to suggest new ways of relating to the elements of the Nature in which we live.
You, my only love
Two tiny human figures from a distance exchange amorous effusions on a beach during a rainy summer afternoon. This is how the creation of mankind as told by the Bible will have happened? Human beings, nothing compared to the vastness of the World in which they live, when they can find the love that inspires and guides their lives can produce forces capable of changing the entire Universe. Dedicated to all couples who love each other regardless of sex, race, religion, social, economic, political or ethnic membership.
