Keiken - 経験 - Experiencia

Artist: Guadalupe Estévez Sala

Keiken is a sensory experience that aims to bring us closer to one of the most eccentric, technological, and modern countries in the world: Tokyo, Japan. In this country there is the so-called “Art Triangle” made up of the National Art Center, Suntory Art Museum, and Mori Art Museum, among many other museums; And not only that, but all its streets with illuminated signs, fluorescent colors, kawai-style establishments, and its people make Tokyo a special place. Personally, there was a museum that blew my mind and convinced me that it was a pending trip in my life: the TeamLab Borderless museum, a virtual and interactive art museum, which in its immense rooms uses projections, giant screens, 3D art, among many other futuristic installations.

At first, a photo of the street appears in the background, and by pressing the space bar, we can scroll through the images of the different rooms of the museum; The last photo is again of the streets of Tokyo, and there, even if we continue pressing the key, the application will not play again.

Biography

I was born on 02-12-1997 in the Recoleta neighborhood, Capital Federal; My name is Guadalupe Estevez Sala, I am 23 years old, and I live in the Villa Santa Rita neighborhood, a neighborhood where I grew up with my family, made up of my father and mother, and my two brothers. I am lucky to have grown up in a very supportive, open-minded and class-conscious family; I went to public primary and secondary school, I graduated from the Juan B Justo Higher Education Institute.

At this moment I am studying Multimedia Arts at UNA, a faculty that I love and gave me a different look at life.

As a girl I was very restless, I went through every type of recreational and artistic activity that exists, until I found what I liked, which was dance. I studied for around 5 years in different studios and institutes. It was a back and forth between devoting myself to dance or studying another career (I even went through the CBC for medicine), since I didn’t see my path in dance even though it was what I loved. I began to investigate the field of audiovisual production, sound design, and I began to find in art a way of life with thousands of outlets. And here I am…

As for work, I am working for the city government, as an administrative employee of the UFUs (Emergency Febrile Units) at the Tornú hospital.
