Latest project in residence

El nostre refugi galàctic (Our galactic refuge) (2025) is the third part of the FALLA project, which the company has developed to find the connections between the concepts of cosmos, geology, ancestry, memory and future. After months of walking through deserts, forests and valleys, dozens of people of all ages meet in a clearing and ask each other what brought them there. The answer is their desire to dance, to remake and share the ancestral dance of Laniakea, as an immemorial ritual. They will have to build a shelter, decipher maps and go on galactic adventures.
