Karla Kracht (Ghost in the Wall)
Kracht creates futuristic retro techno sculptures, where the limits between the drawing’s stroke and its digital reflection are completely fused. In combination with live recording, drawings, video and projections of shadows, light and animation, he creates bizarre universes full of strange creatures, miniature cities, inhabited by mythological cyborg goddesses that tell science fiction stories about current social and political problems.
Maria Paz Marciano & Marc Vilajuana (Things to say).
Marciano and Vilajuana are young and committed artists, focused on making and proposing a change in the established order, from the proximity and from the scenic multidisciplinarity. They propose a conversation, through art with the public, giving value to the ability we have to empower ourselves in the situations that surround us and the treatment we have with nature today from the consumer society.

He was a winning group and finalist in several competitions such as Festival Brot (2017) or Bala Perduda (2019). His debut album was published in 2018 and was cataloged among the 10 best albums in Catalonia by the Mondosonoro. He has performed more than a hundred performances (including Primavera Sound) and currently enjoys a residence at Fabra i Coats, where he develops his second work. Extinction presents here, which is proposed as a compilation of several EPs set in different natural ecosystems with the intention of representing the gravity of the loss of biodiversity. Each song will bear the name of an endangered species that will be chosen according to the criteria of the IUCN Red List. The extinction of the species will imply the disappearance of the song forever.
Miss “Y” + LLapispanch
Miss ‘Y’ comes from the world of manipulations of sounds, images and words. She searches for, captures and creates sound ethnographs extracted from everyday life, she usually moves through the field of collages, devices and installations, integrating performative action. His creations take us into a certain narrative unrealism with activist and poetic airs. LLapispanc: its referential framework is the art of action of artistic protest, with a dynamic towards the “derived”, material and aesthetic poverty, primitive and meaningless.

Since then they have continued to create in parallel to participation in different projects of community interventions, and have developed their own workshops. During their stay in Indonesia they realized that the waters of the planet are only one and the waste of a corner of the world is a problem for all humanity. Thus, already located in Barcelona, they created shadow plays and workshops on the subject of garbage and the sea, giving a
New life in waste from light.
