THE WEB

Site Specific Performance Installation

​

The Web is a performance installation, a collaborative piece created by Raquel Sakristán and Meri Nikula. The first version of this piece was filmed in Madrid, October 2019. This improvisational work is intended to be taken to various public spaces, creating a moment of connection, a living web between the artists and the viewers. For this version we had the amazing change to use this gorgeous white dress from a renowned fashion designer Israel Rodríguez. He was also kind enough to film this first process.
