Vocativo

dsc9861-32

The vocative is used to invoke, call or name a person or personified thing when we address it. Conesa proposes a video installation, made up of three projections and a music sheet, in which we can see a musician playing the staves of said musical composition. On the three screens we see the same protagonist but each of the shots is recorded at different times, in different weeks.  In this way, the musician performs exactly the same music sheet on each of the screens, but the time interval on them makes the objective interpretation of it become a personal and non-transferable decision-making process. To this fact, Fito adds one more element. In thismusic sheet, the weight of the interpretation falls entirely on the expressive texts that the artist proposes to the musician, texts that go beyond TEMPO, DYNAMICS, ACCENTUATION AND CHARACTER, adding a layer of unusual objectivity. The musician must make decisions and interpret these notations. Although they will face this music sheet 2 more times, the time interval between one performance and another will act as a deterrent when performing the expression text.
