Abstract
[spa] Estudios iconofágicos es un proceso de investigación y exploración alrededor de la producción y consumo de imágenes en la sociedad contemporánea. Vivimos una era saturada de representaciones, los
medios de comunicación, la publicidad, las redes sociales, grupos terroristas...lanzan sus contenidos a un público ávido de imágenes. La realidad acontece tras la pantalla, en diferido, directo o streaming pero
siempre diseccionada, producida, codificada y mediada. La barrera entre realidad y ficción se confunden fácilmente y lo más intrigante: inconscientemente. ¿Vivimos la realidad como ficción o la ficción como realidad? ¿Se puede llegar a habitar un mundo icónico? ¿Cual es nuestro papel como ciudadanos, operarios y comensales? Por medio de mecanismos ópticos, dispositivos subversivos o experiencias gustativas se pretende forzar al espectador a tomar parte activa de las propuestas. Cuestionando así el poder de las imágenes y la relación que establecemos con ellas.

The barrier between reality and fiction is easily confused and the most intriguing: unconsciously. Are we living reality as fiction or fiction as reality? Is it possible come to live in an iconic world? What is our character as citizens, workers and guests? Through optical mechanisms, subversive devices or gustatory experiences the aim is to force the viewer to take an active role in the proposals. Thus questioning the power of images and the relationship we have with them.
