This video features an interview with Josu Bilbao in conjunction with ágidxen, a work made conjointly with Estanis Comella and developed inside the framework of ESTUDIO V. In the Recess, Occurrence. Based on the phonetic transcription ágidxen, a dialectal variation of the Basque adverb "agerian" and which, in the artist’s family environment, references the specific circumstance where a member of the family becomes uncovered at night, the performance reflects on care and the way it materialises in language, and on the voice and listening in relation to that which occurs in the environment.

The interview sees the artist share the path he has travelled in the process of creating the piece, in addition to the affect and poetry in languages and the importance of “listening to place”, which on this occasion is the Museo Reina Sofía Garden.
