Young people

The Under-21 team is a group of young people from the ages of 16 to 21 who are interested in culture, art and community life.

We focus on artistic practices that foster dissident attitudes and collective processes of creation.

Our way of working is in constant evolution. It almost seems like a miracle now to be able to physically meet up in the museum to share time, but it is important to us.

In the new 2022-2023 school year we wish to recover the museum with meetings and hook-ups with artists and collectives, to don high heels, to think about unsustainability, to think about small ways of changing our world through art and to adopt to changing circumstances like chameleons.

We are launching a call to increase the team and so begin with greater strength. Join us and discover the team!

Over the course of three sessions, we will learn how to produce our own publications, such as fanzines and posters . We will look at different fanzines and low-cost publications, from punk to DIY, queer, photocopies, cut and paste, appropriation, drawing, photography, etc.

Guerrilla communication strategies will be developed aimed at creating a collective publication for distribution at points chosen by the participants.

TARGETED AT YOUNG PEOPLE BETWEEN THE AGES OF 16 AND 23

Activity organized in collaboration with Dirección General de Juventud

Espacio Mutante believes that the end of the school year is the perfect time to take over the museum for a whole week and to build a space where we can spend time together, where we can share and create something between everybody. For this reason we invited the artist Cristina Celada to carry out a summer workshop, where she will help us to experiment with copy-based creative strategies.

A “sweded” film is an amateur homemade remake of a blockbuster movie. In other words it is a precarious, handmade copy and at the same time—or as a direct result—it is truly creative, cheeky and independent. For a whole week we will appropriate all sorts of audiovisual referents like youtube videos, film scenes, trailers, video clips and so on in order to transform them and make a personal and transferrable adaptation.

In this workshop we will dress up, act, build sets and even, on one of the days, camp out in the museum itself. Everything it takes to create our own remake using humour and economy of means.

Enrolment free from 15 June

“It’s hard to describe exactly what it is like: it has something monstrous, something from science fiction, a thing that you can’t put your finger on but which gradually starts to make sense, that takes place unseen, different layers, the power of the imagination, suddenly seeing something unexpected, two different realities, what inflates, what shines …”

The projects by the artist María Jerez always have this thing that is never easy to explain. Works that are based on emotions, processes of trial and error that create unexpected connections and reconnoitre forms of imagination still waiting to be explored.

ESPACIO MUTANTE has invited María to give a creative workshop in December for young people from the ages of 13 to 21. Over two consecutive Saturdays we will create a space for making, experimenting and taking risks. A workshop in which we will submerge ourselves in new creative universes and work with a combination of processes and strategies close to theatre, dance, film and the visual arts.

Aimed at young people between the ages of 13 and 21

How do we look at art? How do we position ourselves in front of an artwork? How do we interpret works of art? How do we share them? These are just some of the questions that arose over the last year in Sub21. But, you are probably asking yourself, what is Sub21? Well, this is the perfect opportunity to introduce ourselves, and the reason why we are organising an event open to the general public in which we will explore the guidelines of what we could call CA2MISM.
 

We wish to create a safe space where we can share different ways of seeing things. An accessible space where there will be a closed code that speeds up the space’s learning process.

—As Sub21 then.
—But open.
—Ah! A sect!

The U21 team is a group made up of young people from 16 to 21 years of age who are interested in culture, art and community life. We focus on utopian practices of art that promote experimental forms of organisation, dissident attitudes and collective creative processes. Our way of working is to continuously evolve: right now it seems almost miraculous to be able to meet at a museum to spend time together but we feel that this is very important. This year, we aim to bring back museums, meetings, artists and group meet-and-greets, travelling to the future, becoming nomads and mountaineers, doing magic and adapting to the circumstances like true chameleons.

In this first stage of the year, called Start of the End of the World: Youth, we begin a collective research laboratory with the artist Paz Rojo, in which we radically experiment with speculation and the future.

Currently the U21 team is made up of: Diego Alonso, Alicia Arévalo Gallego, Cristina Bermúdez Garrido, Paula Díaz Cano, Miriam Domínguez García, Sandra Esteban López, Nadia Ettahri, Claudia Fernández Concepción, Marina Lillo García, Irene Lloret Miguel, Elisa Lozano Triviño, Fabiana Marques Abatemarco, Richard Moreno Campechano, Marina Olympia Rodríguez Ibáñez, Rosario O'Kelly, Hugo P, Daniel Perera García, Iris Perpiñá Fabra, Rubén Reyes Carrasco, Tamara Serrano Cabello and Marina Viñarás Germano.

The new team members will be: Marina Díaz, Adrián David Ferrer Cinta, Carolina Vizcaíno Serrano, Chris Alzamora Martínez, Claudia Mangas Gómez- Álvarez, Eleana Mayra Fernández Barcellona, Esly Reyes Germán, Valentina Herrera Otálvaro, Brallan Josué Ramos López, José Javier Hernández Escudero, Ana Rodríguez and Clara Isabel de Pedro Lizarazu.
