Cristobal Leon and Joaquin Cociña are an artist collaborative based in Santiago de Chile. Their 2012 film Los Andes will be presented as a large-format projection in the Bank of America Project Gallery at PAMM. Between 2010 and 2013 the artists created a series of dark, stop-motion animation films, Padres.Madre (Mother.Father), El Templo (The Temple), El Arca (The Arc) and Los Andes (The Andes). They describe these mysterious films as foundational chapters of a new creed, presenting magical images that mix the sacred and with the profane, the beautiful with the horrific, the sublime with the bestial. In Los Andes a strange, restless spirit inhabits an office room, moving in and through its walls, producing plant forms, strange alchemical symbols and a giant’s hand and face. The entire film is made using simple materials--found objects, tape, paint and charcoal--to create an enigmatic narrative referencing past colonial empires and futuristic configurations of power and control.
