The Loba Movie Theater

The Loba Movie Theater was created as a space to show Loba movies. Those stories explained in the Library were a good plot to create living stories. The movement, the time of each frame are a part of the art work. Animation is the way to give movement to the narrative. We have just started to play with animation. We are having a great time and this is the most important thing to do. 

Calendrier d'Âmes

This calendar is not about saints, but souls. Mere souls of beings. It is a very important thing to create a calendar to schedule those soul's days. Each one needs a special devotion. 

Life of mine/Vida meva

A Reason

Those verses from Maria Mercè Marçal were the main reason for this book. They are included in her posthumous poetry book: Rao del cos. I remember her a long time ago, I visited some friends and she was there, she just had her baby and she was milking her. Someone told me who she was, one of the greatest poets in Catalan language. I wish I could have talked to her, but I was too shy for that. I remember I loved the name she gave to the baby girl. And after that day, I have been reading her poetry.  I had the great opportunity to see her milking her baby. I feel blessed for that.

They will come from the shadows

There was a urban legend when I was a young teenager. My friends told me that if someone gave birth in certain hospitals, the doctors stole the baby and gave them to another family in adoption, telling the mother that the baby was born dead. Many years after, this legend happened to be true. Many children were stolen and given to adoption. Many children were looking for their parents. The DNA matched families. I was wondering how those people could feel, how those beings are coming from the shadows.

Negraestrella

 













Negraestrella was created from a song I heard when I was a child. I remember a young girl with a foreign accent singing a song about swallows and tiny swifts that know everything about life, love and the end of love.  And there are the black stars in the morning. The swifts and swallows that will not come back.

Aveuglement

 "Last April the 30th I read that Ernesto Sabato passed away. It was my birthday and I could not think about this important lost, but I was really touched.  I read from him "Sobre heroes y tumbas" (On heroes and tombs) and there was inside one the most disturbing chapter I've ever read: "Informe para ciegos" (Report on the blind). Time for mourning arrived and one day I found a copy of an old Braille alphabet. As a mourning for Ernesto, I decided to talk about blindness. But the image I had on my head was the light. Bright light instead of darkness. But to not forget that when we first see the light, we are completely blinded".

Teresa Gomez Martorell

Aveuglement

Starting a new project. In French, aveuglement means blinded by the light. I was concerned about the act of seeing and light after darkness.

Book of the word

Mantra as a phrase that is repeated again and again. Mantra were created to relieve souls. The book of the word has to be simple for that. There is no need of anything else.

Eternelle

This is the first book of the year. Even though it took a lot of time to make it. First, there were all those elements that remain forever. I always wandered what it means to be alive. Those small beings have been alive, but somehow they are still living.
