Pit'xi is the companion (in reference to ksxa'w, which means dream and spirit), intermediary or emissary between worlds. In the culture of the Nasa people in Colombia, several ancient practices involving images (particularly dreams and visions) create a sacred geography of the territory. Time, all the narratives of this culture, and tangible reality, all revolve around it.
UntitledOn May 27, 2011, police tried to evict the camp at Plaça Catalunya (Barcelona), which consisted of citizens exercising their right to freedom of assembly in a public space. The ensuing events in Barcelona became one of the most-documented cases of police brutality in recent history. They will also go down in history for the effective, exemplary and forceful non-violent response of the demonstrators. Following these events, a group of citizens filed a complaint reporting police abuse. But the judge closed the case without even hearing the complainants. This decision effectively left the claimants – and all citizens – utterly defenceless, and left the perpetrators of the serious events that took place on May 27 unpunished. It also created a dangerous precedent that is reminiscent of the impunity that existed in Spain during Franco’s dictatorship. #SOS27M Police impunity questions Spain’s democracy and justice system and calls for the support of the international community.
UntitledPlan Rosebud 1 is focused on the recent social debate around the so-called Historic Memory Act in Spain, and the current relation between the sites of memory and the politics of memory, and the cultural industries, studied in detail, in our case, trough the war tourism and commemorative tourism (that forms the main part of the four scenarios that this first film contains).
UntitledUn video d'entrevistes a alguns dels plantilleros que podem trobar a Barcelon (Trepax, Mr. Case, Olivia, Btoy, Neor, Miquel Garcia, J, Sam 3, Omar i Sonos), gravat després de la imposició de l'Ordenança Cívica a la ciutat. El vídeo es va realitzar per deixar testimoni de les conseqüències de la normativa imposada per l'Ajuntament que consisteix en dissuadir de la pràctica de l'art urbà, especialment al centre de la ciutat. Aquest està penalitzat amb multes de fins a 3.000 euros, a la vegada que BCNeta elimina permanentment qualsevol mostra d'art que troba. Càmares: Anna Peix, Neretva 6, amb la collaboració de Iban, Gorka Bilbao, Roger Subirats Muntatge: Neretva6, Justin Credible, Coolture, amb la collaboració de Lobo en la Sombra. Agraïments: a tots els artistes i vàndals que han participat. A Schhh pels consells i a BCNeta per les nostres teles noves de cada dia.
Safaris in the gaps of the empire of property speculation. Psycho-geographic wanderings.Huge urban extension of desolated and confused territories between deconstruction and construction submerged to the rhythm of daily transformations... While the constructors look ahead in the future and neighbors reclaim the past of the workers district, here we are now, in a changeable and dynamic surroundings, without known marks and orientational signs. Municipal maps are not valid here any more.Flow of human circulations are generating and modifying according to measure that urban volumes are transforming. Every movement happens to be an adventure because it won't be possible to see and experience it never again.
UntitledAn exploration of the responses of people belonging to different associations in the seaside neighborhood of La Barceloneta, who are facing an urban plan proposed by the government of Barcelona. The plan consists of placing elevators inside the traditional neighborhood houses. By criss crossing the perceptions of various characters, we perceive the creative tensions that reveal some of the ways people experience local conflicts and different ways of resolving them.
Port Trade Portrait is a portrait of the old Barcelona cargo port, which has been transformed into a tourist leisure area. Today, tourists step around Africans who are trying to make a living in the face of the constant threat of persecution and detention, right on the same docks from which the slave ships that enriched distinguished families set sail not so long ago.
