Artistic mediations at the André du Colombier: A Lyrical Point of View exhibition, with Estel Boada

Mediation experience at the André du Colombier: A Lyrical Point of View exhibition, led by artist Estel Boada, aimed at the audiences visiting the museum on Friday afternoons.

What connection do you think there is between a ceramic frog, a collection of rubbers, different-coloured party plates and shopping bags? These are some of the mundane objects which du Colombier gave a poetic setting and space. What would you choose from your bag or your pockets if you had to give an improvised gift? Don’t worry: if you haven’t got anything on you, you can always give a play on words! In this immersion in du Colombier’s work we’ll be revealing new messages hidden behind the assemblages selected for the exhibition at the Museu Tàpies, creating new plays on words and listening to music from the edges in a homage to du Colombier’s outside universe.

Estel Boada (Barcelona, ​​1991), singer and multidisciplinary artist, defines herself as a contextual juggler. With a background in Fine Arts, she explores space, community, and voice through performance. Her work, marked by humor and absurdity with touches of fantasy, burlesquely reflects on her life as a “frustrated diva.” Interested in experimental education, contextual art, sound, music, and drawing, she uses action and humor as tools of critique. She has participated in numerous interdisciplinary art interventions and curated self-organized contemporary art series. She is also a composer and vocalist for various musical projects.
