An ‘aixopluc’ is being built to provide shelter from the elements.
Scribbles on stickers. The distributors and their new owners give them a new meaning. They place them in places they frequent and can map them on a shared Google Maps list. I understand ‘creating’ as sharing a small glimpse of how you inhabit your world. A world that is constantly challenged by the presence of the other.
David Minguillón
I began my musical journey at the age of 8 with the piano, discovering the guitar a few years later. My training ranges from conservatoires in Tenerife to a Master’s degree at the prestigious Berklee School of Music in Valencia.
My music is a dialogue between genres: classical guitar, jazz, flamenco and contemporary music. I have had the privilege of performing on stages across Europe, the Americas and Asia, sharing my art with audiences from all over the world.
Today, I combine my work as a concert guitarist with music education and sound therapy, helping others to discover the transformative power of music.
Judit Pérez Hdez.
A lover of literature and the intersection of disciplines, she writes out of curiosity and the pleasure of playing with language. Her work moves between poetry and short fiction, exploring memory, emotions, travel and everyday life from an intimate and personal perspective.
She has trained in poetry and creative writing, taking part in projects where literature engages with other arts. At LOBA’s Laboratorio de Letras, she has begun to explore recitation and the possibilities that arise when a text finds a voice, a body and a perspective. She is currently continuing to develop her work, bringing together texts that engage with one another and consolidating her own constantly evolving voice.
