→ About

Mar Gimeno Lumbiarres (1994) is a spanish-catalan multimedia artist, film director & experience designer based in Rotterdam (NL).

In recent years, she has specialized in XD and immersive narratives to create projects that attract diverse audiences, inviting them to research, reflect and trigger behavioural change through interactivity and storytelling. She has worked on projects for Mobile World Capital, NASA JPL and Boston Children's Hospital.

For-Mar, innovation involves staying connected to the roots. Heritage, anthropology, cognitive science, paganism and nature are always at the centre of her work.

As an artist, she delves in the world of performatic acts and visual installations, which she cross-processes using video, nature elements, her body, photography and sound. Her themes swing between nature, life-death, universal memory, witchcraft and esotericism. She finds beauty in the grotesque and holds that darkness is the essence of light.

Calypso

IN PROGRESS

Photo performance captured by Jose Allen and Marina Frean. First encounter channeling Calypso.

Calypso, is the author’s interpretation of a deep raw feeling (or emotional state) that connects humans with their primitive sense of alternative realities, intuition and the unknown.
Calypso is everywhere surrounding us. — We just need to remember how we used to listen and be guided by her word. — She hides in the mould, ponds, seaweed, our mothers’ womb, tears, sex, birth, raindrops, or the smell after the sense of a storm.

This is another invitation by the artist to (re)connect with our ancestors. She depicts this idea through the realm of the goddess of the sea, Calypso, and the traces she leaves behind. A switch button activated by embodying and regression to an archaic monstrous-vermin state, almost like a trance. Pure, dark, heavy, calm and magnetic.
An awakening of a state that humans may not have stayed in touch for a while.
