‘Azabache AV’ is a series of artworks responding to Ana Quiroga's debut solo album 'Azabache’, which is due for release on Houndstooth, Fabric Records.
The works bring together Ana’s music connecting otherworldly sounds, synthesised voices, tribalistic drums and emotional drones in a ritualistic exploration of the inner powers of the self, the family roots, folk traditions, sacred amulets and magick. Estela’s visual interpretation acts as a gateway into a hybrid experience merging virtual and physical realities and experimenting with formats such as filmmaking, world building and games. The series includes the album artwork and a series of pieces for the release of each single. The central work is Azabache AV, a live AV performance in which both artist open this world live to audiences, and it was premiered at Sonar Barcelona 2023.
Following a history of artistic collaborations, Ana and Estela, have created AV performances, immersive experiences and installations together. Their recent show META AV has been presented internationally, including Sónar Hong Kong, MUTEK and MIRA Festival.
