Carles Castaño *****2025/…
_ES
Following his participation in the latest edition of LEV Matadero, Carles Castaño Oliveiros presents *****2025/…, a mixed reality experience produced by Servicios Inmersivos that challenges the public with a critical view of contemporary society.
The piece immerses participants in a dystopian environment where, through interactive tours—such as searching for a room to rent in a cardboard city or performing procedures in clandestine operating rooms—the cracks of a world caught in capitalism and overconsumption are exposed.
During the immersion, they must make decisions that affect both individual experience and social destiny. With a strong narrative and political charge, *****2025/… transforms the space into a speculative fiction that reflects, with irony, the contradictions of today’s society, creating a space for reflection on the present and possible futures.
