Divisoria

Lot Arboleda / Philippines / 2024 / World Premiere / 6 min.

synopsis

An ascetic image, silhouetted by moving figures, charts the choreography of movements in Divisoria, Manila's busiest economic centre. Through the process of video mapping, the artist has processed the trace of his passage through the frenetic neighbourhood, erasing the background to emphasize the choreography of the teeming people and the undulations of their trajectories in the everyday hustle and bustle.
