We are thrilled to announce the second episode of the new RietveldTV season 𝐀 𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐔𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄:
𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙙𝙤𝙚𝙨 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙚𝙣? by Bea Lamadrid Bayon
Life happens inside or outside?
When I’m walking, do I look at my feet or at the ground? When I have my eyes open, do I see what is there or what I am thinking about?
Too many doors, all there facing your body, front, back, sideways, past, present.
Choose. Meanwhile, life will do it for you.
“Where Does Life Happen?” Is created with archives, playing with the idea of connecting worlds and times. It searches for grief, lighting, celebration and space for the other. The answer is given. Let’s create life together.

Bea Lamadrid Bayón (
@viaworkroom ) is a Spanish video artist, performance director, and producer who graduated from VAV - Moving Image in 2024.
In her visual work, ranging from videodance and video art to documentary, Bea plays with reality to offer new perspectives, allowing narratives to emerge through encounters between characters, elements, images, and constructed situations. She approaches archives and editing as narrative devices to explore multiple possible trajectories.
In her performance practice, she works with social realities, characters, and shifting perceptions to challenge the position of the audience, as well as their relationship to sound and space. Directing the attention toward provocation, intimacy, and human conflict, confronting taboos and emotional tensions.
Her next performance “GAZE” will be presented on March 14 and 15 at Droog in Amsterdam.
Bea is Co-funder of Piloto (
@pilotoclub ), a Performance Residency + Event Series in Sevilla. It is a platform that decentralises live art and creates space for experimentation and cross-disciplinary exchange. Soon the 3rd edition!
