The Fashion Religion

Domestic images that seem unearthed directly from memory, a lost childhood, motherhood. These are the components of this visual piece by Area Erina, an emotional montage imbued with colors and textures, for “Adhesive Tape”, a literary-musical project that combines the music of Jesús Andrés Tejada and the texts of Silvia Penas.

Area Erina's work, which moves from installation to audiovisual, explores work with collage, plastic experimentation and interest in analog and digital photography. In her pieces Miña Nai, The Fashion Religion and You Killed our Future, she makes a particular use of the appropriation and recycling of images to combine them with a critical view of reality.

Rachar en dous is born out of an intimate and reflective internal state. It is a moment of vital inflection marked by doubt and uncertainty, a kind of gentle acceptance that finally becomes an act of rebellion against the very process of creation, manifesting itself in the film’s very own material nature. Within that transit, a female body enters into dialogue with the various places and landscapes of San Sadurniño. The corporeal gesture appears as a kind of sensitive exploration; a movement that includes contemplation, nostalgia, a search for a kind of dance with the environment. The dance or the performative gesture as a mediation between the interiority and territory, between intimacy and spatiality. It is not so much a depiction as a listening: the landscape, the interior time, and the questions that run through the body.
