(About childhood games)
2024—2025
HAUS - Espacio de arte y práctica contemporánea, Barcelona, Espanha, solo exhibition
This exhibition emerges within the context of the OutResidence artistic residency project by the Pláka Collective (Porto, Portugal), in collaboration with Bar Project (Barcelona, Spain). Building on the research project Sobre brincadeiras de infância, the act of play is reclaimed as an essential gesture of everyday life. Through interviews and personal accounts from members of Poblenou community in Barcelona, focusing on their childhood games and their social impact, the exhibition explores how these experiences continue to resonate into adulthood. Reflecting on the idea of a playscape in the centre of Barcelona, the exhibition recreates playful atmospheres within the exhibition space, inviting visitors to rediscover play as a form of encounter, memory, and resistance.
