03/20 – 7 p.m. Opening: PROVISIONAL TERRITORY by Xavier Mamano

From March 20 to May 3, 2025.

A project of Xavier Mamano

Between Gavà and Castelldefels, forests and fields spread across the territory. Now for whom, now for there, some isolated building, or just its trace. A territory that has a provisional character. According to the planning, 27% of the area will be transformed into residential buildings. These photographs are a look at the moment before the possible change.

The set of images, beyond a sum of anecdotes, aim to transport inside this space. Feel the heat, the cold, the threat of rain, the wind in the trees, the coming night.

The exhibition wants to invite reflection on the contrast between progress and conservation. The pictures do not show the change that sooner or later will come. But you can see transformations that had already affected the territory, ruins of farmhouses, demolished industrial buildings, abandoned quarries. And by the hand of nature, which is patient and constant, step by step, it is regaining ground.

Opening: March 20 at 7 p.m.
