SOUNDS OF METASTABLE EQUILIBRIUMS
S.M.E.
International sound art exhibition which brings together authors from seven countries of three continents, presented in the virtual space of Freijo Gallery.
Curated by José Iges, for Freijo Gallery.
What we present here is an exhibition that takes place in a virtual space. It consists of stereophonic sound works, besides the visual, sound, video and textual content that complements and expands them. This means that it is, above all, an invitation to listen.
The works on display here have been made between 1987 and the present time. Despite this time interval, all of them are resignified and projected in this moment we are living, and this is perhaps the main reason for their choice. This present in which we are living in a metastable equilibrium, of a weak certainty that sustains us in a forcibly attenuated register of movement, waiting for a change of state that is not clearly visible. They are, therefore, works that probably have to be valued as a reflection of a moment and heritage for future times, and as such they will perhaps be the object of those archives that we are only now beginning to build.
