Rodrigo Romero-Flores
Rodrigo Romero-Flores is a chilean poet, sound composer and visual artist, based in Northern Ireland. He studied Hispanic Language and Literature at the Universidad de Chile and Field Recording: Soundscape Composition at Goldsmiths, University of London.
His artistic practice relates to the sonic exploration of memory, the contrast between the sublime and the everyday, the passage of time and the sense of loss in a highly technological world. The tension between the present and the absent runs through all his works.
His current research is concerned with the limits of memory from a spatio-temporal perspective, and the technological mechanisms that allow us to reactivate and re-imagine small fragments about that which is irretrievably lost.
Residency Period: December ‘23 - March ‘24.
