Gao. Làzara Rosell Albear
//= $catTxt; ?>Centrale presents Gao, a photo and video installation by Làzara Rosell Albear. Làzara Rosell Albear (1971, Havana) lives and works in Brussels. She obtained an M.A. in audiovisual art from K.A.S.K. in Ghent. Her films and audiovisual creations have been projected in numerous festivals. She explores movement, migration, transformation, interactivity and its effects on the human condition. Her transdisciplinary projects range from performances to concerts, choreographies, films and installations exploring the experience of presence and the senses through interactivity with spectators. She mixes traditional techniques with the possibilities offered by digital tools and by 3D. For her installation at Centrale, Làzara Rosell Albear continues her work on Cuba, her native island. She focuses more specifically on the neighbourhood surrounding the house where she grew up (Gao means house or home in Cuban slang). The installation, created from recycled materials, incorporates photographs and videos and will be accompanied by a series of performances.
