Temporarily occupying the exhibition with five video pieces made by Ana Esteve Reig, Lúa Coderch, Momu&NoES, Nuria Güell and Eli Cortiñas that confront identity construction, feminism, institutional power relations, commodification of bodies and the representation of what is considered feminine in fictional narratives. Playtime Audiovisuales proposed these films after watching Catti Brandelius’ work and considering her relevance for artistic contexts.

Several forms of feminism and political struggles will be present at the same time.
