Inventar_iar. The life that does not pass

Basing her project on a film from the early years of cinema, Ester Ferrando looks at her own work from an artistic and personal distance. Falling Leaves is a film about the innocence of childhood, as well as the speculative experience of human beings, whether young or older, who through art seek out (literal or metaphorical) ways to hold on to what slips away from us, be it a landscape, a face or an entire life. Holding tight to this poetical and visual image, the artist traces out an inventory of artifices to describe what takes place and what does not, that outdated, disorganised, faded and illusory path of memory. All voyages in time involve spatial practice, mental but also physical movement, tactile and material tracing that both affirms and unsettles.
