Curators Kim Bouvy and Mariska van den Berg invited Iratxe to talk about the film Under the Wing for Radio Paleis Maashaven. Taking some audio fragments from the film as a starting point, we will converse about the translation between sound and image and radio as public space.
The live broadcast took place from the Sculpture Park at Art Rotterdam, and can be found now in Operator Radio or Spotify.

Starring David Bade, Roxette Capriles, Yair Callender. Commissioned by CBK Rotterdam, artist David Bade is developing the manifestation Image echoes. He asks eight artists to create temporary works that respond to the famous sculpture collection along the 'art axis' between Central Station and Westzeedijk.
With Ayo, Salim Bayri, Johan Gustavsson, Iratxe Jaio, Joanneke Jouwsma and others. Art Rotterdam is also Prospects, the recurring presentation of up-and-coming young talent supported by the Mondriaan Fund. We will talk to some of these young artists about a less tangible approach to the public domain, with topics such as migration and identity, memory and mother tongue. What is the impact of our personal thoughts on the city? Is there room for our different identities and backgrounds? And what if you don't feel at home…?
With René Boer, Opperclaes, Save Museumpark and others. How can creators and users of the city make that city themselves? What does it take to make public work? Where is there still room for experimentation?
Radio Paleis Maashaven from Art Rotterdam is a broadcast commissioned by CBK Rotterdam and is made by Kim Bouvy, Mariska van den Berg and Operator Radio.
