De la Terra al Cel

The composition of their installation for the A Cel Obert festival arises from the fusion of two scales. The territorial scale of the Ebro, through the abstraction of the range and the geometry of the environment, with the more specific scale of the place where they will be installed: the very nature of the courtyard of Sant Joan.

They will take Tortosa inside the cloister. Tortosa as a landscape. Ochres, maroons and browns all present in the ripening cycle of the Ebro crops. Plantations that texturize the earth, weave the territory and, in short, define its identity.
