Ingrata Bergman – Siete Años De Mala Suerte – Spain

Siete Años De Mala Suerte is an ode to the breaking of the mirror. An AI voice double of the artist narrates a poem that condenses the traumatic experience of surrendering to other’s desires, with the loss of identity and self-steem that brings along. This piece is an invitation to look away from the mirror and the digital mirror a screen is, because even seven years of bad luck are better than a life of slavery.
