Iván Rivelli (El Bolsón, Río Negro) is an artist curious about the sounds produced in environments, their symbolic relationships, and recording methodologies. Present at ´ace thanks to the Semillero 2024 grants, in collaboration with the Williams Foundation, Iván is interested in phonographic practices, field recording and listening processes that take place in specific places.
ARTIST STATEMENT
Digital media are present in all my artistic production, with a predominance of sound over other media. In some cases the sound piece recovers its own sense, but in most of the works it is the materialization of a broader process such as a poetic action, a drift or an investigation. Some features present in my production are: the sound identities of the territory, listening, phonographic practice, soundscaping, cartographic processes, space/time representations. These features are materialized in productions such as: installations, research projects, audiovisuals, sound pieces, fanzines, digital applications, site specific, etc.

On December 11th, 2024, we bid farewell to the year with an ´aceNITE in which we were able to learn about the processes of the residents from November-December, share delicacies and toast to the closing of the year and the beginning of a new one. Along with our guests, the local public came to the ´ace studio to talk with the residents and share a night of rich and nutritious conversations.
Iván Rivelli (El Bolsón, Argentina) occupied The Tower studio with his multichannel sound installation Acoustics of the Ground. Intermediate affectations. There, Iván, a Production Residency fellow thanks to the Semillero 2024 Grant (in collaboration with the Williams Foundation), shared a sound installation with 4 listening stations and a map of the routes that the artist made with his geophone to record the underground sounds of the City of Buenos Aires.
Solin Yoon (South Korea) inaugurated his installation at the Sala Políglota. Present at ´ace thanks to the agreement between the Foundation and ARKO—Arts Council Korea, the artist presented an installation composed of a video and photographs taken during her visit to Ushuaia, Tierra del Fuego.
Seungyoun Lee (South Korea, also present thanks to the agreement that the Foundation maintains with ARKO—Arts Council Korea), installed in the Dialogue Space of the ´ace studio the result of the 4 weeks that the artist spent producing her work in our printmaking workshop. There, she created a new series of prints on which she made hand drawings to expand the engaved images.
Natalie Bui (USA) inaugurated her mural painting on the terrace of the ´ace studio, where her work will coexist along with the rest of the mural pieces resulting from the Palimpsest Project—Mural Painting Residency.

Ground Acoustics. Intermediate Affects.

What are the possible narratives from an intermediate listening? What are the exchange relations between what happens above and below the city?
This project is about the process of exploring the sounds of the ground of Buenos Aires from practices of collection and recording. I propose to listen to the soils without the will of interpretation, but rather as a way of particular attention and experimentation of possible meanings. The soil as an interface, as a membrane that regulates and tensions the acoustic relations and the exchange of flows. It is a point of passage and reciprocity.
The materials and records collected in the process of this inquiry are arranged in the space following an organization based on intuitions and affectations. There, coexist elements of expertise and classifications mediated by relations of proximity with materials, sounds, references and specific places in the city.
