Gregorio Fontaine Correa
He explores the fluctuation between dance and listening, where the song appears as a resonance between body and environment.
This exploration of the song branches out into individual and collective works of poetry; songs, improvisations, piano and field recordings; installations, dance and visuals, the Winka Wayno Sound System, plastic works and speculative writings.
Gregorio currently lives in Valparaíso, Chile, where he develops a postdoctoral project at the Institute of Art of the Universidad Católica de Valparaíso, framing the artistic practice of fluctuation as a Latin American sonic onto-fiction.

His songs have been described as unique and disjointed, with an effect that is hallucinatory, corrosive, while at the same time strange and beautiful.
