Baixar al carrer / Bajar a la calle / Descendre dans la rue / Going down into the street: Jordi Colomer

Colomer presents a series of works that orbit around the city and ways of perceiving it. The city is formed by circulation of people and vehicles, buildings appearing and disappearing, ever-changing neighborhoods, population displacing other population, and so on. This flux of movements shape the urban landscape. Its constant activity makes the city become an entity in perpetual transformation, and it writes a history of memory, evolution and future.

Colomer shows how space is transformed, manipulated, redecorated, expressed or festivalized in every moment, and how it is interpreted and lived. be ir revolutionary, insurgent or festive, the fête creates another urban project detached from the norm. It is manifested, instead, through practice and life itself. It is also the most radical form of public space usage: it allows the inhabitants to take it, to make it theirs. Through images, Colomer examines the construction of the urban space and reflects upon different ways of inhabiting it.
