Popular is a challenge-performance that stems from the autofiction that the creator and performer intends to be a popular artist, challenging the standards of the cultural landscape and the popular universe through a fusion of the two. The proposal draws on the friction between elite culture and mass culture to contemplate the audience as a collective and the social divisions that this tension may reflect.
Between biography and research, the proposal leads to questioning other concepts belonging to the same lexical family as the word "popular," such as popularity, pop, and populism. Popular will always end up questioning whether it could have been popular or not.
