N/pantla is a collaboration between sound artist Paula Montecinos, visual artist Pedro Matias and performance artist Devika Chotoe, towards creating a porous living environment from which the body echoes the broader socio-political and natural context.

N/pantla works as a dynamic sonic environment that reorganizes in each iteration, merging live electronics, sonic sculptures, movement and vocal performance in co-existing imaginaries of subversion, remembrance and premonition. 
Echoing Gloria Anzaldua’s proposition of Mestiza consiusness, we research liminal states a place of contradictions, connections and transformations, and where a corporeal debordering of fractured mixes and remixes, half-spoken words, half-screamed vocals, frequencies, whispers, thoughts, laughter and cries, invite us to decentralize listening, through one another’s skin.
A sonic space that seeks to guide the audience into edgy embodiments, where queer bodies, fugitive voices and animated objects move emotionally, physically, politically and spiritually.

With the Invited voices of Joahn Mijail & Angelo Custodio.
