Interdisciplinary artists and researchers developing a collective practice grounded in the construction of speculative narratives. Their projects explore scenarios in which reality and fiction deliberately intertwine, creating spaces of ambiguity where the structures of the present can be observed from a position of estrangement. The artists also examine the persistence of extractivist and capitalocentric models, as well as the imaginaries that accompany them: techno-optimism, the promise of unlimited progress, and the regimes of post-truth that shape contemporary experience. This approach allows them to investigate the fragility and spectral character of these configurations, attending to the complications that arise when attempting to inhabit an increasingly diffuse world. These inquiries take form in installations that integrate image, sound, writing, and action—an assemblage that enables the deployment of ways of thinking and producing in unstable contexts, and experiments with modes of situating oneself in a world that can no longer sustain its old certainties. They have exhibited and/or developed their work at institutions including Fundación Antonio Pérez (Contemporary Art Center and Photography Museum), Iceland University of the Arts, Universidad de Castilla-La Mancha and Experimental Creation Center (CDCE).
