Valentin Torrens

Since the 90, he had performed in twenty five countries of Europe, America and Asia. Present his work in international festivals and one -man action. Interested in media uses and rewards. Perception as source and limit of our desires. The politics of perception, its liberation. The social shaping of the meaning. Communication as suggestion. Visual poetry in unconventional languages. Breaking and challenging performative resources. Changing strategies. Decoding the accommodations of art and culture, its connivance with the horror. A double code , real / illusion , of the artist as a shadow, his own and the context shadow, which transforms artist and context. Humour and liminal play, short -circuiting the language’s logic and the audience’s mind. Action under dim light, stressing the direct perception. In the last six years curetting th e performance area in the multifestival PERIFERIAS, Huesca and others as TERRITORIS NOMADES in Barcelona.
