Albert Gusi IN RESiDENCE at the School Escola Rec Comtal
I am interested in both urban and rural territory, both industrial and natural, and the areas of confluence of multiple lines and borders on a map. Fascinated by the friendly or tumultuous relationships between motorways and allotments, rivers and ring roads and mountains and industrial estates that add and remove the lines that are being constantly traced out and erased again.
We will look at the neighbourhood and the educational centre from a birds’-eye view, to come back down and reinterpret it. To play in and to do chalk drawings, to take advantage of the streets as a space to form relationships and enjoy games. To understand the communications axis and reclaim it and, if necessary, to cross it on foot. To bring the canal closer to the river and the river to the neighbourhood. To take the largest circlein Catalonia and pay tribute to it and reproduce it in distant parts. To put the School in the centre and the centre in Trinitat Vella.
We will search for confluences between the children’s dynamics from the educational centre to the neighbourhood, and we will bring the diversity of their place names and their rivers and mountains to the park and the canal to the river.
Doing all this with art which is capable of bring everything to a standstill... in order to start again from scratch.
