la Otra*
La Otra* is an artistic research and film collective that traces figures, gestures, & affects whose influences are muted, silenced, and excluded from "official histories". As a starting point, we look towards peripheries, repressions, negative spaces, and the subconscious as sites of study— taking an interest in the fragmented & ephemeral phenomenons that emerge from within these spaces.
La Otra* is composed of three artists, Laura Alcalde, Sol de Caso, & Laura Cadena, originally from Spain, Chile, & Colombia respectively. Currently based in Barcelona, La Otra*’s practice combines our interdisciplinary backgrounds in video-art, performance, and anthropology. Through this work, we pursue artistic inquiries marked by counter-ethnographic traces— challenging extractive observation by foregrounding reciprocity, intuition, and lived entanglement. In doing so, we are attuned to the moments in which shared reflection takes on a collective life, distributing itself among us in unexpected & surprising ways.
