Fito Conesa
Sound art installationsFor the past years, I have been accompanying—and learning from—the multimedia artist Fito Conesa through his sound art journeys. In the last two years, we worked on two different projects: OVAL (2023) and Anoxia (2024).
OVAL activated the organ of the Oval Hall (at Catalonia's National Museum) for a brief period through a sound installation. The project featured a site-specific composition projected from within the organ, reverberating throughout the hall. Created with recordings of the organ’s pipes—where Fito performed and I handled all the recordings—and the intervention of the artist Maria Arnal, it brought together thousands of voices and sounds that filled the long-silenced Oval Hall, where the organ remains in complete disuse.
Anoxia: A Constant Prelude, on the other hand, is an opera that gradually unfolds some of the most pressing issues affecting the Mediterranean Sea. It is a visual song that explores our questionable coexistence, narrating the sea's struggles through thermal glissandos, yet refusing to settle on fatality as the only melody. In this project, I was responsible for recording, mixing, and mastering the 25-minute orchestral composition. It was awarded the Videocreation Award from the Loop Festival in Barcelona.
