The Old Child

Felipe Esparza Pérez

Philosopher Zhuang Zi once dreamt he was a butterfly. This pleasant daydream tells this old story from a new perspective. Modern butterflies apparently dream in VR. Nature, technology and spirituality seamlessly meld when a monk and a child both embrace modern technology their own way.

Laguna negra

Felipe Esparza Pérez

To their faithful inhabitants, Peru's mountains are a sacred space full of mystery. Nature is the focus, from juicy greenery to shiny mud, from biting winds to silent mist. In their midst, a healer who recommends not letting unimportant, worthless things distract you.

Pawqartampu

Felipe Esparza Pérez

The video explores and connects elements of the Cult of the Virgin of Carmel, the main celebration of Paucartambo, in Peru. Plants, domestic animals, colonial houses, and ritual masks recreate the multiple environments in which this sacred experience takes place, during which human song is joined to birdsong.

Espacio sagrado

Felipe Esparza Pérez

This group of films is brought together by their intention to imagine that which is "outside". Something extra cinematographic, extra artistic, extra linguistic. In these "outside" the question of immanence arises, endowing the film with a quality to become a sort of cave instrument. The mountains, the plants, the clouds. The beams of light on the ground, the murmur of the river. The scratches, the mystery of the underexposed, the stalking of silence. This game of the pre-human from the human, or the pre-cinematic from the cinematographic, seems here to be constituted from a ritual of intuition, observation and/or luck. Possible, but incomplete. The sharpness of these stagings perhaps lies in their questions about the most appropriate material for their plastic art: the effect of time on man. - Carlos Renteria
