Infrasonica – The Sorrow of the Inverted Sailer

In The Sorrow of the Inverted Sailer, Chilean multidisciplinary artist Enrique Ramírez treats us to a presentation that features and unites indigenous instruments, multi-generational performance, and the harnessing of the elements to produce a moving visual and sonic piece.

Enrique Ramírez’s work combines video, photography, installations and poetic narratives. Ramírez appreciates stories within stories, fictions straddling countries and epochs, the mirages between dream and reality. This Chilean artist, who lives and works between Chile and France, often uses image and sound to construct a profusion of intrigues and to occupy the equilibrium between the poetic and the political. His imaginary worlds are attached to one obsessional element—his thinking starts with the sea, a space for memory in perpetual movement, a space for narrative projections where the fate of Chile intersects with grand narratives of voyage, conquest and migratory flows. His liquid images speak of the sparkle of a truth in permanent flight, the backwash of history, always repeating and never the same.
