Φλαουτίστας και συνθέτης, ο Wilfrido Terrazas είναι ένας από τoυς πιο δραστήριους, πρωτοπόρους Μεξικανούς μουσικούς.
Ο Wilfrido συνεργάζεται με συνθέτες, ελεύθερους ερμηνευτές, performers και καλλιτέχνες όλων των κλάδων για τη δημιουργία μουσικών έργων, που αψηφούν το παραδοσιακό άκουσμα για να οικοδομήσουν με μοναδικό και τολμηρό ήχο νέους μουσικούς κόσμους.
Ενεργό μέλος του συλλόγου Espontanea Egeneration της περιοχής Liminar, διδάσκει φλάουτο στο Conservatorio de las Rosas στην πόλη Μορέλια.
Το έργο που θα παρουσιάσει σε παγκόσμια Πρώτη στην Κεφαλονιά έχει βασισθεί και δημιουργηθεί από την αγάπη και ενδελεχή μελέτη του καλλιτέχνη στον Ελληνικό Πολιτισμό. Ο δημιουργικός ήχος του διατρέχει τους αιώνες της Ελληνικής Ιστορίας, θεμελιώνοντας ένα αέναο πρωτογενές και μεγαλειώδες μουσικό στερέωμα.

The stimulation of working in a community with other artists is essential for the purpose of learning and sharing creativity.
I wish for my work to have “absolute beauty,” that “oneness of form” that means that in a tactile sense, memory and physicality are one. I am compelled by that mysterious memory of flesh and material, of strange and forgotten events. I am influenced by Cy Twombly and his paintings that depict the Aegean Sea, the ships sailing to the island of Paphos and the mythical god Dionysus. I think that the flesh and blood in my paintings is of Dionysus, of desire, as well as of a tortured feeling of diminishment, or denial.

In the summer 2011, Pamela Longobardi (US) swam to a massive sea cave from Liakas with Maria Rigatou (GR). It was immense and filled with many pieces of plastic, some very large. The two women swam out several large bags of material and large plastic objects. For Drifters Project/Kefalonia Phase II, Longobardi plans to clean the entire cave with a team of swimmers and to remove all the material and transport it to the Ionion Art Center to document, analyze and create a single large-scale art installation in the gallery.
In July 2012 the materials will be floated out of the cave as a giant raft of plastic, a floating island chain transported by swimmers – Pamela Longobardi herself and Claudia Lamas Cornejo (GE/PE), a Berlin-based culture manager and curator of the environmental exhibition project PACKET-SOUP.
This action will be documented by underwater and above water video to create a film that will be projected in the gallery with the array of plastic that is removed and sorted.
A forensic study will be done of the modern-day archeology of the cave, with statistical analysis, object identification of all components, and presentation of the findings.
The artist and Plastic Pollution Coalition founder Dianna Cohen (US) will in addition display her abstract paintings made of plastic bags in half of the gallery space.
