SCENICAL COMPLEX. PUERTOS DE SANTA
BARBARA. CARTAGENA. MURCIA
A further dimension of
landscape.
A distorted reality, improved
by time, that takes and builds up different shots and views, reflected in the
final image. A panoramical assault to the monofocal and canonical perspective.
The
intervention is developed in a public plot, belonging to thePuertos de Santa Bárbara de Arriba
(Cartagena) Neighbours’
association, where its Rural museum already stands and typical countryside
scenes are recreated. It is therefore, a way of recovering, transforming and
improving a rural landscape without missing its natural values, by a series of
interventions that become the scenery of the typical way of life of the
inhabitants of this small neighborhood.
The scenical
complex is placed in the southern extreme of the site, on the very corner of
the plot, making possible with it several intentions:
· To leave
more free space of the plot.
· To take
advantage of the angle in the corner for the development of the piece.
· To come
closer to the exterior, to walk around the landscape “from the inside”.
A small
stage that not only serves its own purpose of housing performances, but that can also become a trigger and complement for a series of situations that are
generated on its surroundings.
Architecture
conceived as the conjunction of the activities of people and the requirements
of the place.
Over the stage the back of the scene stands, with a
double back, two different faces, built in concrete, that delimit the inner
space that serves the artists and provides a route on an upper level which
pokes out in a sequence through
the windows that look over the landscape.
These self
supporting concrete walls appear as independent pieces of origami, becoming
huge paper birds in the landscape.
