"In this exhibition, Chilean artist Francisco Belarmino showcases his extensive practice using digital animation to interrogate contemporary image production and its impact on the construction of individual and collective identity. Belarmino's artworks reflect on the loss and transformation of mediated content, and his criticism stems not only from the use of mass media as a system of social control, but also from the way in which images are produced within a production chain. Through his installation works, he invites viewers to contemplate the conditions and mechanisms of image production and the role of the viewer within this process, using sound, voiceovers, moving images, and other elements. Belarmino's works take various forms, such as video projections, single-channel videos for different screens, or photographic images in dialogue with moving images, often accompanied by attached elements."
