The Rise and Fall of Content y Contenido at La Casa Encendida, Madrid, ES 2022
.
Content y Contenido are Lucía Vives and Ingeborg Kraft Fermin as artners. Ever since 2020, they have been experimenting with the ethos ‘fake it till you make it’ and have thereby accelerated the tensions between oversharing and storytelling through performance and installations. They presented remixes of their pieces in Galeria Zé dos Bois in Lisbon, Perdu in Amsterdam, La Casa Encendida in Madrid and The Grey Space in the Middle, The Hague..
By embracing these characters, they have been exploring pop-cultural concepts such as the poetics of daily life, 12 second-attention span, gender politics, instant gratification, and - most importantly - fun
