Pilar Miralles

Pilar Miralles (born 1997) is a Spanish sound artist and researcher based in Helsinki. She's developing her doctoral project at the Sibelius Academy, exploring a relationship with the world that is not based on the current logics of disposability through the notions of remembrance, listening, and presence. As an artist, Pilar is interested in the perceptive approach to creating situations and the literalness of perception while inhabiting them, their here and now. She feels that today's reality is a place where availability and immediacy have been absolutized, and so, in such a reality, the simple fact of sitting in there and contemplating becomes extremely relevant. In her artistic doings, Pilar questions the goal- and future-orientation in which we are embedded and which has led us to a crisis of presence, and so her practice is approached as a source of continuous reflection rather than finalized products. A space to dwell.
