Claudia Pagès Rabal (born 1990, lives and works in Barcelona) is a visual artist and writer. In her video installations, performances, sculptures, and drawings, she often addresses knowledge domains and themes relating to the protean history of the Iberian Peninsula, global migration movements, territorial appropriation and control, as well as the cultural diversity and mix in the Mediterranean region. Pagès Rabal’s work is centered on condensation: the complexity of spatial, temporal, visual, and textual layers unfolds in the combination of seemingly contradictory and asynchronous elements and their multifaceted entanglements. In the exhibition Feudal Holes, Claudia Pagès Rabal expands on her longstanding research into the Silk Road, the legendary network of trade routes that stretched from Central and East Asia to the Mediterranean region, transporting not only goods but also capital in the form of knowledge for centuries. 

Curated by Franz Thalmair.
