biography
September 2016. We meet each other collaborating with Basurama and, co-creating between ironed plastics, climbing furniture and stretched out bottles, the “pescaítos {little fish}” [as we were known there] began to feel the seed of an energetic co-creative shared mood.
December 2016. During the Urban Platforms II encounter, we opened the door to international collaborations. Stimulated, we scribble an exquisite corpse that we signed as NADA. From an apparently meaningless gesture, our imagination begins rhizoming*
March 2017. We sit down to designate our common concerns, the desire of transforming Nada into something flourishes.
April 2017. We carry out our first project!
July 2017. While we “walk slowly {camminamos con lentezza}”, we become part of Collective Architectures {Arquitecturas Colectivas}.
October 2017. We arrive at the Mercado de San Fernando, where we share our work space with PEC Puesto En Construcción in an old restored fish market stall.
Today. We keep on nading*
AL DESBORDAJE · NADA Colectivo
Exchange of cloth bags for plastic bags that were to form part of an installation “in process”. An installation based on reused inflated bags tied to a net of LEDs which contained the overflow of plastic that we cover our lives.

THE MACHINE · El Campo de Cebada
“The Machine” is an itinerant artistic container built out from leftover materials found around the city for our project “¡Qué Lata!”. Now it is “parked” in its new host house: El Campo de La Cebada, where it has become their current Free Cleaning Zone and stimulates the good and respectful use of shared space.

¡QUÉ LATA! · ¡Pinta Malasaña!
Urbano-graphic action that criticizes the trash that invades Malasaña’s neighbourhood. Collectively, using beer cans as brushes, generating a representation of the space that we take away from ourselves as users of the streets and adding a reflective and creative character to our gestures as leisure consumers.
