Iratxe Jaio & Klaas van Gorkum are artists. They have worked together since 2001, producing performances, videos, publications and installations. Using documentation as their work methodology, they analyse and question social and political issues concerning the everyday.

Their work is often said to be political, as it brings to the surface contradictions and conflicts that may exist between individual and collective experience. For information about their art projects, and news about recent and upcoming activities, see www.parallelports.org.

In 2010 they started writing a monthly article reflecting on the relation between art and politics for Mugalari, the cultural supplement of the Basque newspaper Gara. This website functions as a repository of these and other texts.
