Community Project

Dinoflagellata – Varias comunidades y varios grupos

The project of Gonzalo Lebrija, Francisco Ugarte, and Pedro Martinéz-Negrete is inspired by a kind of phosphorescent algae that is present in the Manialtepec lagoon, near the foundation, called Dinoflagellada. The result will be a record album composed of a series of musical recordings produced in collaboration with bands and musicians that come from surrounding communities and characteristic of the Oaxacan coast. The album will be finished in 2016.

Francisco Ugarte’s work is based on the grounds of architecture, mainly during the creative process: the proposal is generated from a deep focus in the environment, and it’s a response to it. Using a variety of media including site-specific interventions, video, installation, sculpture and drawing, his work can be understood as a phenomenological exercise in which reality is comprehend through contemplation, perception and the essence of things.
