Estadi

The stadium activates when no points or goals are scored – when there is no victory. In this space of play and non-competition, rules and boundaries are broken or altered through modifications to its elements, which serve as the epicentre for exploring the various conceptual issues addressed in the exhibition. Deformed goalposts, non-standard hoops and a grandstand that doubles as a podium transform spectators into competitors, all while they are exposed to a children's anthem interspersed with fragments of ultras chants fiercely calling for the defence of their colours to the death.

cabosanroque

cabosanroque is Laia Torrents Carulla and Roger Aixut Sampietro. Their work revolves around sound and its performative capacities. Their interventions question the exhibition space and formats; they also challenge the audience's way of inhabiting this space—physical, temporal, and conceptual; sonic and visual. They are interested in artifice and its relationship with humans.

They seek tensions between disciplines such as music, theatre, visual arts, and sound to open up margins, areas of conflict. Their academic backgrounds (in music, industrial engineering, and architecture) lead them to use technology in all their works, always understood as a tool, as a medium and not as an aesthetic, in a continuous process of research. They often collaborate with other artists, thinkers, and writers.

Flexo Arquitectura

Founded in 2002 by Tomeu Ramis, Aixa del Rey, and Bàrbara Vich, the studio is currently directed by Tomeu Ramis and Aixa del Rey.

Based in Barcelona, it explores the potential of any project to make sense within a specific eco-social context, using resources—both conceptual and narrative—and conditions—technical, economic, and material—as opportunities from which to construct design strategies.
