Based on the song "RÍO", a composition by Santiago Jiménez and played by the Colombian band Benjamin, CARBOGRAMA is the result of an experiment in which multiple arts converge: music, dance, drawing and video. 

From Alejandra’s improvised movement, Damián processes the dance first as photographs, then as drawings, and finally into a short film, attempting to reveal the material passing of time - the central theme of the work.

Director, drawings, animation: Damián Alquichire
