Clara Boj

(Valencia, 1975)

Artist, cultural researcher and teacher at the Polytechnic University of Valencia. In the artistic field he works alongside Diego Díaz in projects where public space and new technologies come together. Under the premise of "hybrid city" they transfer their proposals to the street, proposing the meeting between the physical place, the digital space and the people. In different projects they investigate non-linear narrative using locative media resources with which to generate a palimpsest of physical and digital information. His projects and works have been exhibited in festivals, museums and art centers with internationally recognized prestige such as: Singarpore Art Museum (Singapore), Kiasma Museum (Helsinki), Daejeon Museum of Art (South Korea), Kumu Art Museum (Tallinn) , ZKM (Karlsruhe), Ars Electroncia (Linz), Trasmediale (Berlin), File (Rio de Janeiro), ISEA (San José, California), Big Day Out (traveling to Australia), Amber (Istanbul), Exit Festival (traveling by France) and national ones such as: La Laboral Centro de Arte y Creación Industrial (Gijón), La Casa Encendida (Madrid), Ars Santa Mónica (Barcelona), Els Baluard (Palma de Mallorca), Bolit La Rambla (Girona), Sonar ( Barcelona) among others.

He participated in Medialab Madrid with the workshop on intervention in the physical and digital public space, Free Network, Visible Network. Augmented reality and wireless networks. This workshop offered a theoretical and practical introduction to the creation of a hybrid space where the visualization of invisible data helps us build a collective experience. One of its objectives was to generate new virtual, personal and subjective configurations of urban space, as well as to promote access and exchange of information through a free and open network. For banquete_08 he presents the Observatory project, where he reflects on the use of public space and the support of free networks.
