Julieta Colantonio
I am a communication strategist, writer, and curator born in Buenos Aires and based in Berlin.

I work with brands, institutions, and artists to develop culturally sensitive communications across registers and contexts: leading creative cycles from research and briefing through production and analysis.

Within the ‘spiritual technologies’ research and curatorial infrastructure I co-founded and co-direct, I study how shifting paradigms mutually inform experimental practices situated in a neo-periphery. The syntagma operates as a potential for rearrangements of perception, meaning, and accumulated knowledge. By placing critical theory at the service of collaborative coordinates, I explore the philosophical, sonic, and metaphysical possibilities of this premise.

My formation in Communication Sciences (UBA) and Visual Culture research (Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin) sustain both bodies of work with structure and analytical depth.

I work across English, German, and Spanish.

spiritual technologies
research infrastructure, curatorial hyperlinking Julieta Colantonio, Sofia Mastrogiacomo, Shaly López, Mila Tirini. 
Berlin, Germany. 2023-present.

spiritual technologies is a research infrastructure and exercise in curatorial hyperlinking based in Berlin, co-founded and co-directed by Julieta Colantonio and Sofia Mastrogiacomo, with core member Shaly López. Since 2023, the focus has been on the conceptualisation, design, and production of dramaturgies, publications, installations, and artefacts: imploding borders between exhibition series, academic discourse, and internet practices. Our approach integrates experimental strategy and research methodologies to catalyse collaborative efforts on repositioning pioneering (neo-) peripheral actors worldwide and the institutions they are aligned with.

A fragile moment of peace (working title) is an ongoing sensory dramaturgy co-authored and developed with light and stage designer Shaly López. Working across sound, light, scent, and word, it explores the dramatic and metaphysical possibilities of the spectral. Derived from the Latin specere ("to look"), the spectral refers to perceptual phenomena in which figures or sensations remain after a stimulus has ceased. Through the iteration of spatial articulations, a structure based purely on subjective, locational, and relational interpretations begins to form. Not a narrative; but likelihood pushed until it behaves like one, the composition in progress traces how perception continues to operate beyond the limits of the sensible.

sound, silence, world is a listening format series situated within a longer-term initiation into gong facilitation and Ashram training. Developed in collaboration with designers, producers, and composers, the practice advances the hypothesis that the current decay of our reality systems is giving rise to a turn to stillness, witnessing, and contemplation: not passive, but increasingly receptive to atmosphere. Its map of influences spans from Pauline Oliveros' Deep Listening to Egyptian Alchemical treatises on sound as medicine and Death Doula traditions. The planet gongs I play are attuned to the Cosmic Octave, a formula developed by Swiss mathematician Hans Cousto linking periodically occurring natural phenomena. Their frequencies travel through matter and enhance Theta and Delta brain waves associated with creation states and access to the unconscious. The encounters operate as coordinates that collide the outward and active with the inward and embodied, towards collective gestures in the processing of grief.

A 60' cut of Leo Adef's videotape archives. Spanning eight years of intimate encounters, the film-based essay explores the dual face of vulnerability as a driving state to sustain: as fragile as it is potent. Both a fragment and a continuum, the project moves under the pulse of reaching from individual universes the matter for sense-making and sense-breaking perception -- of the self, the bodily, its surroundings, and the intrinsic grief of probing through all three. Encompassing queer experiences across Berlin, Kyiv, Buenos Aires, Athens, São Paulo, Barcelona, Prague, and Warsaw, Leo Adef's act of editing links the dots between outward expression and inward articulation, beyond the tyranny of time-space. The Berlin encounters at Arts of the Working Class mirrored the project's promise: to remain open to both the forces of fast-paced transformation and deep-degree vulnerability. A meta-image of the archive itself, the closed-door iterations of Leo Adef's cuts aim to enrich the body of work by facing intimacy with intimacy.

I saw you in a song and I saw you in a song: an anti memoir, the publications, are echoing formats of the exhibition series I co-curated with Sofia Mastrogiacomo for photographer Marina Mónaco. I developed the title and original concept for Mónaco, and later co-directed the editorial project alongside Mastrogiacomo, together with the spatial design and installations for its presentation in Berlin. The publications feature photographs, text excerpts, song selections and my conversations with the artist. Our work was featured in DAZED Magazine and is part of Printed Matter Inc. catalogue in New York.
