I have been following Alba G. Corral's visual work for many years and her powerful and stunning visual work for live audio-visual performances. Each visual I come across or video documentation I watch, I am in such admiration of her talent. Corral works with musicians, music producers and live electronics musician and is involved in many audiovisual projects ranging from installation to audiovisual performance in a range of settings from fulldome, to large-scale screen audiovisual performances. Her output is prolific and her visual style is polished, sophisticated, intricate and beautifully formed.

Short Biography

With a background in computer engineering, Corral has been creating generative art using software and coding for the past decade. Her practice spans across live performance, video, digital media and installation, exploring abstract narratives and expressing sensitivity and taste for colour.

Like many artists Corral has extensive documentation online about her work. One of her pages on her own website consists of a really useful video player.https://blog.albagcorral.com/videos/
Immersive performances
Corral's varied approach to the presentation of her visuals is how she works with various screen formats for audiovisual performance. For example, in 2019, the project ex(O) is a singular audiovisual performance merging the aesthetics and technical researches of musician Alex Augier and visual artist Alba G. Corral. The premiere of this work was in L.E.V. (Gijón SPAIN) 2019."Sound, image, space and time fuse perfectly into a formally unique synesthetic entity: poetic hypermedia, oniric and organic, deployed in the space under the control of the two performers."
