Domain of things and other histories
Domain of things and other histories by Pedro Gómez-Egaña (Colombia/Norway). Pedro Gómez-Egaña’s background is in music and composition in addition to the visual arts, something that is apparent in all his works, in which timing is essential. He has worked on a series of pieces that explore motion in relation to fundamental forces such as gravity, repetition and catastrophe. His pieces often include compositions of text and phonographic material, as well as mechanical constructions, video and simple drawings. Although his practice involves multiple technical resources and artistic disciplines, it appears to construct worlds of particular simplicity.

Domain of things andf other histories is a performance piece for a performer and a place, where a choreographic construction is embodied in a sculptural system. Time is taken as a non-linear geometry in this piece; a step is taken away from the physical dimension of time to its textual and narrative qualities.
This is a dispositif (power structure) for the eye movement filled with little stories in between big events. This is a story of chaos told in reverse, where small things don’t lead to big ones. There is a room and there is a person, and there is space and tunnel vision. Someone is touched by things that didn’t happen to him. He swallows it all up and makes a move.
