Description

Artistes EN RESiDÈNCiA is the program of the Institut de Cultura de Barcelona (ICUB) and the Consorci d’Educació de Barcelona (CEB) that wants to promote the practice of contemporary creation in the city’s public secondary schools. The Lliure participates in it as a mediator, in the course 22/23 with an artist chosen by public call for the first time in the twelve years of the program: Marina Congost.

Un dia, jo proposes an encounter with the stories of a group of young people who will tell us about their origins and their culture. A proposal of collective creation that is expressed from biographical work, through memories and family memory, which has allowed to know and document this wealth with different devices.
Under our life experiences and cultural identities, there is always something that unites us. The stories and curiosity to know the other is one of these threads that allows to shorten the distance between us. And this is what we wanted to do, to bridge the gap.

"A theatrical work is guaranteed from a different perspective. We believe that from their interest in dealing with issues related to the construction of cultural identity and its representation through open devices, a very interesting creative process can arise with high school youth."
_Marina Congost

From September and during the school year, the project will be developed at the Institut Escola Turó de Roquetes in Barcelona, and at the end of the year will be presented in a public exhibition.

Marina Congost’s residence is mentored by Chilean stage director Marco Layera. This support is part of the Institut Ramon Llull’s international mentoring program.

The Carlota Soldevila grants are possible thanks to the partnership between the Theatre and the Fundació Banc Sabadell.
