2021The Way Between Two Points

Jose Soraide, Ulay
El camino entre dos puntos (The way between two points) investigates Patagonia’s tainted nature. Here, where throughout the 20th century ever enhanced methods of oil recovery, have transformed an amorphous, ambivalent and hardly populated landscape into an uncanny site of man’s supposed mastery of nature, the film traces the ways of a man, who wanders the scenes aimlessly, bound by his own implication in the menacing mechanics of oil production but drawn physically to their coevally proceeding erasure by the rough and untamed nature of this seemingly self-subsisting land.

Talk with Dust
Sebastián Diaz Morales
Talk with Dust is part of a series of videos which are ultimately sequences of a whole. Both a concept and a blurred narrative. The latter is not explicitly delineated in the course of the series but it is intuited. The sequences generate, rather than a narrative, a concept.

The Lost Object
Sebastián Diaz Morales
A film studio; a simple room with a bed, chair, desk and sink; a crew. A mysterious object. Following Jean Baudrillard's notion that the world has disappeared behind its own representation and it is therefore impossible to return to it, The Lost Object examines the complex mechanisms of how we perceive the constructed nature of reality and how this construction is achieved. In both the realms of our imagination and film. Fiction and reality merge into a single element.
