Rrose Present

Rrose Present: La mirada interior

Sí, Rrose Present “va a la contra”, amb el coratge habitual dels cineastes experimentals, que saben de l’oposició natural del mainstream, la incomprensió natural del públic majoritari, i l’habitual indiferència de les seccions de cultura de l’administració. Resulta que a la vegada és innegable que l’audiovisual progressa gràcies a cineastes com ella, ja que la “il.lustració de relats literaris” de la indústria tendeix a l’esclerosi.

Joan Marimón Padrosa
Cineasta i professor de muntatge a l’ESCAC. Projeccionista. Escriptor de llibres de cinema.
(fragment de la crítica per la mostra “La fàbrica d’imatges, Sala Muncunill, Terrassa)

Rrose Present va néixer a Barcelona. És llicenciada en Belles Arts per la Universitat de Barcelona, Beca Sèneca Audiovisual per la UPV i Màster en Filosofia en Art Contemporani per la UAB.
En el seu treball combina el vídeo experimental i una reflexió teòrica sobre la imatge escrita amb imatges des d’una crítica mirada “poètica” amb un doble sentit del que és real. El PRESENCIAL; (càmera en mà) amb el cos com a trípode de les seves emocions. I el RE-PRESENTACIONAL; amb la sèrie “DONA “sense càmera” re-interpreta “càmera món”.
D’inicis molt conceptuals abandona la literalitat de les imatges per penetrar en la seva experimentació medial i formal, amb els camins conscients i inconscients que ens obren. Apropant-se al llenguatge del Cinema Experimental, però des d’una vinculació més emocional.
Des del 2015 forma part de la distribuidora The filmmakers Cooperative, NYC, amb la qual ha estat seleccionada en comissariats per compatit cartell amb Maya Deren, Marie Menken, Nancy Holt…
