What means ‘idraola’?

Idraola is the inverted name of Aloardi. It is a word that has been hidden for more than twenty years in the heart of Aloardi. The spirit of this word has been present all these years, but was given a voice by Janneke during a meeting with the members of Aloardi. I interpret it from the two words ‘Idra’ as in Hydra, a mythical seven-headed sea monster, and ‘Ola’, which means ‘wave’ in Spanish. The ‘hydra’ comes to announce the catastrophe. The ‘olas’ and the water unite Rotterdam with Lima; Peru with the Netherlands. The Dutch landscape is below sea level and is invaded by water and light — although attempts have been made to domesticate it. The virus always emerges; humanity is on the way to its own abyss. We came to announce the end of reason. Idraola is an echo in reverse. It is the Aloardi reflexion mutating. It is a force, an impulse, a sound wave mutated by the landscape, By the bodies and the dreams. It is the violence of an unpostponable meeting. It is the mirror. Its roots are in the water. It is sound. This is the situation — a sea calling to no(w)here." Quote and poem by Chrs Galarreta, member of collective Aloardi (taken from the publication 'Aloardi Exchange Programme', p.9, IDRA 001, Rotterdam, 2019).
