Who we are
Lúcida is a space initiated by PulpoFilms and SeirenFilms, two production companies with a sustained trajectory at the intersection of cinema, research, artistic practices, and technological experimentation.
The project emerges from years of work in the audiovisual, documentary, and immersive fields, combining production, education, and the development of experiences in dialogue with cultural institutions, festivals, universities, and independent spaces, both in Argentina and internationally.
Located in the former Teatro Cabildo in the city of Buenos Aires, Lúcida reclaims a site with history and transforms it into a flexible environment for research, exhibition, and encounter. Its identity is not fixed; it evolves according to the projects it hosts, the practices that pass through it, and the relationships built along the way.
Lúcida does not operate as a closed institution or a traditional venue. It is a space for work and experimentation where cinema, performing arts, music, science, and immersive technologies coexist, with a focus on processes, cross-disciplinary work, and the exploration of new languages.
As it develops, Lúcida will integrate a cinema room, an immersive room, and an adaptable stage for theatre and music, conceived as flexible infrastructures in service of contemporary creation.
From Buenos Aires, Lúcida positions itself as an open node, in dialogue with local and international networks, attentive to context and to the contemporary questions shaping artistic practice.
The Name
Lúcida is a Spanish word that refers to a state of clarity, though not one of certainty.
It points to lucidity as a moment of awareness within an evolving process.
The name also evokes devices of vision and thought: ways of observing, recording, and projecting. In the intersection of perception, memory, and construction, Lúcida names a space where seeing implies decision, and inhabiting implies taking a position.
Community
Lúcida is activated through an open and evolving community: people who come to work, research, propose, or accompany processes at different moments.
