Artist in residence: Andrés Rodríguez Monteavaro
Musical and anthropological research project on the ferreiros of Mazonovo (OScos - Eo region)
Project: INCRA
Incra is an audiovisual proposal that, through the semiotics of image and sound an ironwork, presents an industrial project that experiments with the abstraction of the elements of the forge. To do so, it merges iconoclastically with a deconstruction of the sounds of the bagpipe, proposing a non-identify vision of the instrument that allows us to seek new horizons to create an absorbing and intense sonorous and visual space.
After more than three years of musical and anthropological research, Andrés Rodrigues presents this conceptual proposal in which he joins Iván Nespereira at the AV to create spaces of sensorial abstraction in which the spectators are immersed in a deconstructed working atmosphere that invites them to revisit and displace these places and trades. With the production of the Basque Xabier Erkizia and the recording of the ironworkers of Mozonovo in Santalla de Ozcos, this work goes deep into de depths of iron, mineral or water, allowing the assimilation of new sound and visual discourses of the fundamental elements.
The project is currently in the research ande development phase in order to create, on the one hand, an installation that allows spectators to understand the semiotics of pre-industrial work in a visual and sound immersion and, on the other, to develop, a large-format A/V show that goes beyond the limits of music ad enters , through noise and ambient, into de cosmos of noise and darkness of these spaces through live performance.
Project selected in the I Call for Artistic Residencies 2023.
Activity financed and promoted by Regional Ministry of Culture, Language Policy and Tourism.
