O Pulmão de Lustre tries to answer the question “What is common light like?” posed by the writer Maria G. Llansol. It is an installation created from visual, sound, and muscular memories where three screens are displayed on wheels, and it’s possible to make them move by the movement of four hands around them. Once the hands rotate, they activate sensors that allow everyone to listen to a sound work of an accordion. The sound work stops if the body stops rotating the mechanism. With the movements, the screens change positions. In this, this work aims to understand the concordance between four people. What is the best position of the screens to have the best light or shape? Is it better to listen to or not listen to an air piece? Many questions that the audience aims to respond to in a tentative manner of concordance. Without four hands, nothing happens.
