At the invitation of BoCA, Adriana Proganó created “Echoes of whispers, plimplim”, her first installation for the natural and outdoor space. Through sculptures arranged in the space, the visitor is led to perceive sounds coming from unusual places, expanding listening beyond the usual.
Proganó’s installation combines sculpture and sound to explore the relationship between the body and listening. Through three figurative sculptures arranged in the green space, the public is invited to perceive sounds coming from unusual places, expanding their listening dimension from the ground.
With a practice that crosses painting, sculpture and installation, Adriana Proganó, winner of the EDP Young Artists Awards 2021, builds an imaginary that reflects established norms and structures, creating characters and objects that move through different territories, proposing new forms of relationship with space.
The work ‘Echoes of whispers, plimplim’ was inaugurated in the outdoor garden of the Quadrum Gallery, commissioned and produced by the BoCA 2025 biennial. This installation is part of the partnership cycle between BoCA and the EGEAC Municipal Galleries, which, since the first edition of the biennial, has been presenting works for the gallery’s outdoor space. This cycle also includes Tania Bruguera with “Narciso” (2019) and Musa paradisíaca with “Casa-animal” (2017).
