Unstable settlement, 2022

Action featuring 25 performers and students from the School of Art, Catholic University of Chile, Santiago. In one of the gathering plazas within the university campus, the performers will suddenly surprise the audience by performing simple body movements and using a specific sequence of breathing that becomes more and more pressing until the performers themselves enter a phase of hyperventilation, similar to what is practiced by millennia-old yogic experiences, until exhaustion, or reaching an altered state of consciousness. Only contact with the earth will bring back control over the body, but of an energy scenario that will be completely changed.

REMOTO \ beyond any reasonable doubt, 2022 [film]

The first opportunity to present REMOTO – Más allá de toda duda razonable the film work made by the artist following a long direct experience in Chile between 2015 and 2022: happenings, dialogues, still images and archival documents alternate between intimate narratives and broader visions of the Pacific Ocean that continually question, not only through the voices of the protagonists, the apparent stability and mania for control over creation that human beings today believe they possess. A portrait that Di Tillo makes of the earthquake, without punctual and chronological references to a specific seismic event, with the intention of shifting attention away from the more dramatic condition of instability, destruction, death and reconstruction that an earthquake brings with it and directing the gaze toward the potential semantic openness to which these upheavals land.
