              A video about the traces of slavery in the city of Barcelona, in the lead-up to the mass action known as the Catalan Way for Independence. It looks at the dark histories of the Marquis of Comillas, Güell, Delgado, Colom, and the city that names important spaces after them while the majority of the population remain oblivious as they struggle to “free themselves from Spain”. The video asks what it means to break free, what type of freedom we seek on the personal and collective level, and what we will make of our own history and particularly of “our” oppressors and murderers.

              Espacio del inmigrante is a self-managed space created by and for migrants. A space for gathering, reflection, and action. Drawing on “migrant" knowledge and putting forward their own racialised bodies, its members seek to generate new forms of resistance, empowerment and defense of migrant persons as political subjects.

              Europlex tracks distinct cross-border activities through the Spanish-Moroccan borderland and seeks to make these obscure paths visible. On their repetitive circuit around the check-point to the Spanish enclave Ceuta, the video follows in three borderlogs the smuggling women who strap multiple layers of clothes to their bodies; the daily commute of "domesticas" who turn into time travellers as they move back and forth between the Moroccan and European time zones; and the Moroccan women working in the transnational zones in Northafrica for the European market. All these trajectories move around and in between the imperative of the territorial borders. They form, however, a vital layer of the cultural and economic space between Europe and Africa.

              A journey of initiation into a city and a its culture. The set of projections (10 screens) aimed to create a journey in the complex sense of the term: using audiovisual segments to illustrate aspects of the anthropological, sociological, urban and religious tissues of the city. A journey claiming both: a certain objectivity (in the working method), and the subjectivity (of the travel experience and approach to another culture). Moreover, the projections do not meet the criteria of a film with a beginning and an end, but rather the creation of a landscape, so the viewer choosed the time he/she wished to dedicated to each fragment. This made it possible to enjoy a deeper level of inquiry to specific fragments (artisans, rituals interviews, etc.). Consequently, the result of each visit to the exhibition gave an unique combinatorial fragments, since the total length of the projections would be about 6 hours.

              Shot in Cameroon and Brussels, Je ne suis pas moi-même explores the world of African antiquities and the contradictions in a European art market hungry for new tribal objects. Where do the African masks come from? What journey do these masks make before their unveiling in the windows of the biggest galleries or art collections in Europe? Who determines the economic and aesthetic value of these objects now that colonialism is supposedly dead' And then there's a continent called Africa, in need of economic resources and therefore willing to sell its cultural heritage or, if need be, to fake it. The authenticity of the objects becomes blurred when the people that once adored them start to sell them.

              “I will show two videos: “Trobriand Cricket”, and “Les Maîtres Fous” to talk about what I will call “mimetic excess”. By this I mean a joy or "jouisance" in mimesis itself (Nietzsche talks about this in his description of Dionysus). An “excess” produced at the moment of de-Colonisation in the 1950s-1960s, with the encounter between the Indigenous and the European worlds; the first with its mimetic body, and the European world with its mimetic-machine (the camera). A question for us: Now, in 2006, what do we do with this "excess?"

              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.
