LUGAR

Lugar is a site-specific live arts collective. Lugar, or “Place,” observes and integrates the cultural and material context of each site to create performances that dialogue between the space, its materials, the performing body, and the fields of sound active between them. The performances seek to generate situations of contemplation and heightened sensoriality to practice situating ourselves contextually.

Lugar 1 (Ermita)

The first iteration took place in a hermitage in rural Spain (Teruel). We chose the hermitage for its acoustic properties and due to our interest in how to reinterpret a mystical place through sensorial and material aspects. The sculptural bodies were completed with elements from the environment (logs, stones, sand, branches); the soundscape was based on the significant reverberation of the hermitage, working with the techniques of resampling and acoustic feedback.
