"La sequía: un oasis" presents the research of three flamenco artists - cantaora Carmen Yruela, guitarist Carmen García and bailaora Laura Guastini - through dance, changes in perception around drought and water control in a context of ecocide particularly notable in southern Spain. The project is directed by poet and critic Juan Benot, with the collaboration of visual artist and researcher Pablo Caldera. In the Spanish imagination, the relationship with drinking water is linked to Franco's "economic miracle". ©Carmen García Campos

Histoire d'un lichen is a performance based on an iconic image: a computer screen with an idyllic, clean and crystalline Mediterranean beach, which conceals the presence of posidonia, a marine plant that has given the Mediterranean its characteristic color for millennia. Beneath this idealized surface lies the tension of a natural and social world subject to human boundaries, measurements and classifications.
