Project

During my residence in FaberLlull, I will begin the research process of the project 'Incendis', which will be premiered in 2024. In this project, which seeks the projection of a documental installation-scenic device, I will investigate how the figure of the fires relates to the citizenry and the collective imagination. To do so, I will work with inhabitants of different parts of the territory, with professionals who orbit around the environmental field and the fires, with the aim of creating a project that simulates a fire in a forest, which viewers will be able to contemplate.
