Also, the exhibitions features some diverse contexts , with works r4epresented by Yael Davids, Iman Issa and Lucia Koch. Each of these artists stand apart, due to their individual approaches to using different materials and space , whilst also using a connection with the body and its movements as inspiration.

Nora Aurrekoetxea
Nora Aurrekoetxea is a Bilbo artist currently located in Holland, who features in the exhibite. Aurrekoetxea has concernes with the radical nature of love, with the case that the Spanish language does not have the expression to ´fall in love'( tomber amoureeux) which implies the act of falling , and awakening the contridiction of violence. This ´falling'requires our protection, and puts the message of ´how can we protect ourselves for a pain invoked but not yet suffered?. This specific piece of work showcases the divide between the visible and the invisible by using contrast between the fabrics ; concr4ete canvases, towels and reinforcing rods to create the image of opacity and transparency , as the two fabrics create friction , "a body that splits in two ", and that relies on each other to sustain itself.

Iman Issa
Iman Issa is a Cairo artist who is not interested in the viewers expecctations and desires to interpret a piece of work, she insists implications rather than explanations. This 3D sculptures represents her series ¨Proxies, with a Life of their Own'. The sculptures are accompanied by small text panels, with identify the works as selfportraits , but alos as portraits of ther people, mainly literary people. The text panels show a quotation, a statement or paraphrases the writer or thinker have once thought.

Yael Davids
This performance artist, conceives of the body as an archive of shared histories of pain and ability , and is a tool to be used to llearn the confidence to ńot know `and to learn again. However, Davids notes , 'art institutions are more orientated to to care for the artefact , and not for the body '

Featuring the use of materials such as wood and glass, the artist frames the space for the body in which canvase4s with fabrics act as walls. Using sheeps wool left over from a cheese making process. Davids uses this to weave a series of mats used for learning the Feldenkraus method, surrounding sustainability and breathing politics.

Sahatsa Jauregi
Sahatsa Jauregi proposes a gaze through a metal frame, that defines another heavy structure , This sculptural system of a mechanic nature serves as a backdrop but also a figure of dramaturgy that rasies images of tools , lead , weapons and wars. In a context of cooperation and interdependence, the womens faces featured in the strucutre , listen to each other to generate a visual image of violence.

June Crespo
June Crespo recuperates Core (2021 to 2023), a set of sculptures made from concrete using steel drum formworks. In both the series and the film, their raw materials are fragmented and represented. For context, the movement of the invited bodies in this iamge of Beatriz Setien , MAia Villot and Antonio Menchen , become a motor of form and a user manual , a tool for their meditation during the exhibition ; a device of sculptures that operate as a public square with materials that merge together with the architecture of Tabakalera.

Lucia Koch
Lucia Koch combines the fluidity of memory with the robustness of architecture, through a attentive gaze on what devines and surround the environment. Ethereal games which, on this occasion , are tinged with blood red melted into the earth. It hangs by a thread that only unfolds when it reaches the exhibition.

Kimia Kamvari
Kimia Kamvari recalls how, when she arrived in the deserted village of Astigaretta , she entered a period of somnolence. Perhaps this is why, for Kamvari , it could be said that 'every picture that is captured is a posthumous form '. In her engagement with the urgencies of our global and wounded present. the light sensitive celluloid gives shape to a series of photographes in which the backs of cattle are confused with the hillside on which they reside in a kind of somnolence that point to their becoming, and the milk knife acts as a tool to compose a volumetric sculpture made out of blood powder that is displayed at Tabakalera.
