TANIT COBAS AND MARTA SANTACATALINA

CRA’P Residences 2020

9 December at 19h
At CRA’P space

An isolated space occupied by a woman who sends, waits and receives over the distance.

S-end starts with the fake simplicity of a hug, we dive in a conflict with the same naturality as we have when we send an emoji and we rescue the images of a person in dialogue with his alter ego.

Creating at the end, a single body in constant conversation with itself and with two symbiotic internal monologues.
