Ephemeral movie
North African Spanish enclave of Melilla, Morocco; two golf players on a green; they don’t pay any attention to a group of migrants trying to hop the fence of the golf course. These images are screened and mixed live on stage with excerpts from Alfred Hitchcock’s masterpiece “The Birds”. Fear of the “invasion” versus permanence of migratory flows that built the history of humanity.
Agrupación Señor Serrano, founded in 2006 in Barcelona by Àlex Serrano, builds images through the ingeniosity of a device where miniature becomes a fresco and the metaphor of a disrupted world.
Prized with the 2015 Silver Lion at the Biennale of Venice, Agrupación Señor Serrano was founded in 2006 in Barcelona by Àlex Serrano who studied both direction and interactive communication. His shows, dealing with contemporary issues, mix performance, texts, video, music and models.
