FORASTERS VINDRAN… (2021)
Forasters vindran… [Foreigners will come…] is a project that brings together a group of independent artists working in the theatre, plastic and audiovisual arts and professionals working in art mediation, social and community action and historical research, in order to investigate different methodologies that involve the emergence of elements of what is ‘real’ in formal or artistic composition. The idea is to explore how this information that comes from reality, testimony and life can be transferred to the context of artistic work or theatrical fiction.
The creation we present at the Espai Lliure focuses on historical and documentary research, involving people who migrated to Barcelona in the 1950s and 1960s. Despite their defencelessness and vulnerability, their testimonies highlight movements involving self-organisation, struggle by neighbourhood residents, and people building their own homes, lives and futures… These futures are embodied and present in the autobiographical story of Susanna Barranco, a granddaughter of this migratory process.
