Electrosensitive
Ana Dulce

Ana Dulce Collados is a researcher of the visual and the sonic at the intersection of the technological and the organic. Invited to participate in the Carapantallas Project, Ana Dulce proposed a tactile intervention that plays with light and sound in a technologically precarious, and precariously technological, manner. Drawing with graphite on paper and connecting the drawings to integrated circuits that, in turn, power LED lights and a small speaker, Ana Dulce managed to build an interactive device activated by touch that also modifies its behavior according to the climatic and atmospheric conditions that occur on a daily basis.

ARTIST STATEMENT

My practice lies at the intersection of drawing, electricity, and sound. I choose LoFi electronics as a poetic and emancipatory tool. I create different devices and interfaces in which I use graphite as a medium and component, as a surface for contact and activation, to explore the relationship between sensation and perception, the processes of coding, and how these affect our ability to understand our environment. I am interested in rethinking technology in relation to the organic, questioning the opposition between natural and artificial.
