Triadic

The will breaks down, vanishes, the life makes its way.
Everything human comes from the earth and to the earth it must returned.

With this new project, "TRIADIC", he delves into the contemplation of forgotten spaces, man and nature through the hybridization of disciplines.

Director Statement

TRIADIC is a poetic work on the conflict between man and material. The iron factory "El Pedroso" (1831) was the first iron and steel centre on the Iberian Peninsula and one of the great symbols of the second Spanish industrial revolution.
At the facilities, abandoned since the mid 20th century, a new industrial landscape has been created of delicate ecosystems, with the buildings and chimneys, symbols of a melancholic modernity, now forming part of a new totality created from the same material that was ripped from nature.
Walking through here, man must face himself, his limits, his insignificance, the tragic rupture of balance over time. The industrial silence gave way to the most sublime victory of nature over human will and efforts.
