Vica Pacheco / OLLÍN
Ollín, the Nahuatl word for movement, is a live performance for ceramic instruments, performers, and electronics. Rather than accompanying movement with sound, Ollín treats the body as a generator. As the performers move, they activate the hydraulic systems inside a series of ceramic instruments, causing their internal whistles to sound. These vibrations are captured with microphones and transformed into an evolving sonic landscape, composed live by the performers Siet Phorae, Francesca Mariano, Fernanda Soberón, and Vica Pacheco.

"Vica (Ana Victoria Pacheco, Oaxaca) is a Brussels-based artist. Her multidisciplinary practice spans experimental music, composition, ceramics, and 3D animation. Her work, often described as eclectic and energetic, explores mythological crossbreeding and interactions between human and non-human. She employs a syncretic approach, blending pre-Hispanic, archaic, and contemporary technologies with heterogeneous elements to create immersive sound performances and installations. She studied at La Esmeralda in Mexico City before graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from Villa Arson in France in 2017. Her work has been featured in numerous international festivals, galleries, and institutions."
