Alphabet soup
Is a participatory installation that aims to keep memory active. This work begins after the death of Paula’s grandfather, a teacher and exonerated politician. This milestone triggers her grandmother’s Alzheimer’s, who begins to make word searches to activate her memory. A duo of creators of the performing arts, born from the need to investigate different languages of creation to address memory and territory.
ISMOS CONSTRUICCION is formed by Paula Lizama and Nicolás Fuentes. Their work is characterised by experimenting in the contemporary scene, with a transdisciplinary and documentary approach, attending to a liminal dimension between the intimate micro-political sphere and the macro-political sphere. In this way they created their performance “Sopa de Letras” (2019), exhibited at MAC Quinta Normal; “GRIETA” (2020), selected for the Festival Teatro en Casa, and “Estado/Huérfano” (2021), a performance that will be in September at the Balmaceda gallery in Santiago.
