Crist\u00f3bal Le\u00f3n (Santiago de Chile, 1980) and Joaqu\u00edn Coci\u00f1a (Concepci\u00f3n, Chile, 1980) filmed a fraction of their first feature film, entitled The Wolf House<\/em> in the Museo de Arte Moderno de Buenos Aires. The film tells the story of a young German woman trapped inside a house. As the duo explain: \u201cEvery time she expresses her desire to leave in any way, the physical and temporal universe of the house disintegrates and rebuilds itself in a different way. In The Wolf House, everything; the house, the people and even time are as malleable as clay. The walls move, the people get older and younger and time flows in different directions.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The work with multiplication and transformation<\/strong>, which is reflected in the script and the production strategy, is also present in the techniques used. Le\u00f3n & Coci\u00f1a took photographs of sculpture and drawing<\/strong> to make a stop-motion <\/strong>animation. The set was also an artist\u2019s workshop, an installation and a set for a live performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Wolf House was presented together with three short films by the same artists. Luc\u00eda and Luis <\/em>were the first two films made by the artists and The Wolf House <\/em>completes a trilogy that references fables, and horror stories for children<\/strong>. It also featured Los Andes, a recent short presented at the 55th Venice Biennale, the narrative of which explores esoteric Chilean mythologies inspired by Nazi religious sects in southern Chile such as Colonia Dignidad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The artists Crist\u00f3bal Le\u00f3n (Santiago de Chile, 1980) and Joaqu\u00edn Coci\u00f1a (Concepci\u00f3n, Chile, 1980), started working together in 2007, when, together with Niles Atallah they began production on the animation Luc\u00eda, Luis y el Lobo (Lucia, Luis and the Wolf). Their films have been shown at the Venice Biennale, the Upstream Gallery in Amsterdam and Youtube Play, a Biennal of Creative Video, a group show at the Guggenheim Museum in New York. They have won several awards, including the ASIFA Austria Award and Best International Film at the Festival Internacional de Filmes de Fantoche in Switzerland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
