Hello Everyone Re-Mix
Cover Story, June 2025
As part of the survey exhibition “Laia Estruch: Hello Everyone”, currently on view at Museo Reina Sofía, two new performance dates have been announced: June 4 at 18:30h and June 7, 2025, at 12:30h. In these presentations, Laia Estruch will debut fresh iterations of her ongoing work “Mix” (2021–present). Drawing particularly from two pivotal projects—“Moat-3” (2017) and “Zócalo” [Baseboard] (2022)—she activates them as sources for real-time recomposition. As ever with “Mix”, the work resists a fixed script; instead, it unfolds as a live process in which fragments from a vocal archive are pulled, reshaped, and recontextualized—emerging as a sculptural language of voice and presence.

Admission is free, on a first-come, first-served basis, with a capacity of 140 people. Performances will take place in the exhibition in the museum’s Sabatini Building, fourth floor.

The exhibition, which runs through September 1, 2025, is Estruch’s most expansive to date. Spanning 27 works and more than a decade of practice, “Hello Everyone” transforms the galleries into a resonant environment where voice and sculpture merge. Speakers installed throughout the galleries create an audio collage of past performances: whispers, shouts, sung refrains, guttural vibratos. Around them, metal slides, inflatables, and soft structures serve as resonant architectures for the body, amplifying a practice that began as a pop experiment and has evolved into something far stranger—a search for the unfamiliar voices that live inside each of us.

Published on the occasion of the exhibition, Laia’s first monographic publication is now available in separate Spanish and English editions. Designed by long-term collaborator Ariadna Serrahima and published by the Museo Reina Sofía, the 200-page book offers a comprehensive inventory of Estruch’s work: a chronological overview featuring descriptions, photographs, and textual scores. Introduced by the museum director Manuel Segade, the volume includes an in-depth essay by Latitudes—curators of the exhibition—exploring her vocal, bodily, and sculptural practice; a text by artist Sharon Hayes on performance pedagogy; and an extensive conversation between the artist and curator Marc Navarro, reflecting on her creative evolution.
