The piece is built-up of chapters which are blended in a rhythm. Capturing, through a visual language, the \u201ctime of the Cuban people\u201d. I started making portraits of the locals traveling in old cars. These pictures represented the time of Havana, in motion, in a state of change towards the unknown. Simultaneously, using the car frames as an image frame to the portraits. Cuban cars are like timeless, mechanical, colorful and mobile structures which serve as a testimonial of times past and present, one spilling onto another; the time standing still and moving at the same time. However the main focus is the faces of the people. And many questions that come up.Wile visually striking. \nThe music in the piece is played by the Havana Philharmonic Orchestra. Recording on a tape the Orchestra\u2019s rehearsal. In addition, there is one Cuban national song by Bola de Nieve, a lullaby with which most children grew up. \nIn this piece, I mix sounds and portraits with other elements in order to bring a viewer closer to the locals\u2019 vision of life in the Cuban capital. The photographs were made less than one months before Castros death in 2016. When I came back home I have spend about 2,5 years editing the work and building the audiovisual piece.\n\nThank you for considering my request!","space":"The ' Havana Taxi' video installation is on one screen and would need to be in a closed of room. ( with curtness or walls)\nThe movie was shown in SESC Quitandinha in Brazil in a 4m by 7m room. But the piece can be sized according to the situation.","artists_proposal":null,"members":[],"lang":"en","status":"ok","video_link_password":null,"video_link":"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/203900021","audio_link_password":null,"audio_link":null,"images_link_password":null,"images_link":null,"cellphone":null,"description":null,"estimated_budget":null,"complementary_info":null,"fileCount":0,"names":"Isidora","surname":"Gajic","email":"isidora.v.gajic@gmail.com","dni_type":"PASAPORTE","dni":"BJ5496578","address":"Estrada Bernardo Coutinho 4000","city":"Petr\u00f3polis","nacionality":"Serbia","country_id":"34","birthdate":"1988-11-18T02:00:00.000Z","birthdate_2":"1988-11-18T02:00:00.000Z","telephone":"+5524999050530","web":"http:\/\/isidoragajic.com"}
