2026, El ritual del respawn (The respawn ritual), Centro del Carmen, Valencia, Spain.

Ana Esteve Reig presents The Ritual of Respawn, a solo exhibition composed of two video installations that reflect on virtuality and the time we spend in front of screens. The title references the video game term “respawn,” which describes the act of dying and reappearing within the game—an idea that runs through both works as a metaphor for experience in digital environments.

The exhibition brings together
Gamer Dreams, a video that moves through physical spaces—via continuous tracking shots—where multiple virtual narratives unfold, and The Ritual of Respawn, a piece that places the viewer within the gameplay as a group of friends reflect on life, death, fear, and other themes through their experiences with video games. Through audiovisual language, the artist explores personal narratives that expand into shared, universal experiences.
