cuadro #2: el codo/picture #2: the elbow is part of a performance triptych entitled Articulaciones, which the collective Parasite has been immersed in creating since October 2024. The inspiration for the research for the second picture comes from the events which occurred at the gates of the Sala Baratza in Vitoria Gasteiz on September 19th 2024.

That night Unai was arrested by the municipal police of Vitoria Gasteiz for refusing to stop recording the arrest of another person outside the venue. He was overpowered and later taken to the police station.

The research looks into the circumstances that led to these events, the physical interaction between the two bodies, the force used by one against the other, the arc of the fall, the extreme bending of the elbow and the shape that resulted.

During their residency at L’animal a l’esquena, the collective will be accompanied by Idoia Zabaleta Morán, who was present when they were examining and analysing the relevant factors in the events of that night.
