Simulacrum of a legacy

The cultural heritage of a town lies in the hearts of the people who inhabit it.

Participatory photographic creation within the framework of Nilak – Circ Teatre Itinerant, with the women’s association of Vilalba dels Arcs. With the aim of recovering the popular stories that form the territories, we opened a space to explore memory. Based on photographic encounters, we generated a dialogue with different people from Vilalba to learn about different stories. The image was an artifact to stimulate the imagination, the senses, play with symbolic thinking and construct visual narratives that we related to folk proverbs. As a result of the experience, an itinerary through the town was created with large-format images, as a cultural legacy of collective memory.

Special thanks to the participation of Jesús from ca Xiveli, Carme from ca Gironí, Magda and Ramona from ca Folque, Carme from Mossèn Ramon, Joaquima from ca l’Ermità, Loli from ca la Pubilla, Rosa Alba from ca Amadeo, Marc from ca Bombo, Roser from ca Patou and Tere from ca La Moreta.
