DIALOGUE WITH THE OCEAN

Two artists—Anna Franke (Spain // Germany) and Laura Pérez Cervera (Colombia)—meet along the Atlantic coast of A Coruña to create a work that unites sculpture, performance, and analog photography.

For Anna Franke, the body becomes both sculptural material and moving surface. Her gestures trace the contours of rock and sea, merging with the shifting rhythm of the tide. In this meeting between body and landscape, form and erosion coexist—each movement transformed by the pulse of the ocean.

Pérez Cervera, a Bogotá-born filmmaker and photographer based in A Coruña, captures these encounters through analog techniques. Working with film, she embraces the tactile, unpredictable qualities of the medium—the grain, the texture, the irregular color shifts that arise from light, salt, and time. The analog process introduces its own choreography: slow, material, and sensuous. Each frame bears the imprint of the sea air and the hand that develops it, creating images that feel almost sculpted by the environment itself.

Through their collaboration, matter, movement, and image intertwine. The project unfolds as a haptic experience—where sculpture breathes, photography gains weight, and the Atlantic itself becomes a collaborator.
