Faldas Project

From winter (solstice) 2003, we invited more than 130 people to take part of this project. We requested participants to work with 3 triangular pieces of fabric (suggesting to use our names as starting points a name as an event in itself). We aim to generate an action line that connects with Joseph Beuys`s idea :” Every human being is an artist”. The idea behind our project is to reconcile the notions of “knowledge” and “action”

As we received back the triangular pieces of fabric -already intervened- we started to build the “Faldas” (skirts in Spanish) as well as an artist book that details each participant work and its travel.The Faldas are used with ritual pourpouses in our action/performance activities.
What we value as art is its sense of beauty that emerges from the authenticity of each intervention. Our work has been conceived since its very inception as a work in progress.
