SHARING PLACES

Gathering on artistic manifestations in the landscape.

SHARING PLACES

It is a meeting designed to explore the interaction between art and territory. Professionals from all artistic disciplines will come together in a collective reflection on how landscape can influence and enrich new forms of creation and how our artistic practices can influence the landscape and its local communities.

What can the territory contribute to new forms of creation?

The territory, with its diversity of landscapes, cultures and traditions, offers an inexhaustible source of inspiration and resources for artists. At SHARING PLACES, we want to explore how different natural and rural environments can be not only the backdrop but also an active element in the creative process. The geography, history and local identity of each place have the potential to open up new perspectives and provoke a fertile dialogue between art and the space we inhabit.

Expanding artistic creativity into the landscape

Artistic creativity need not be limited to traditional spaces such as galleries and art centres. Landscape can be a living, dynamic element where ideas can flourish in unexpected ways. Through site-specific interventions, installations and outdoor performances, we can explore how the unique characteristics of a place can influence the development of innovative works.

De lo local a lo global

El tránsito “de lo local a lo global” muestra cómo los retos y contextos rurales están conectados con los problemas de nuestro planeta. Las comunidades rurales, a menudo marginadas en las discusiones globales, tienen un papel clave que desempeñar en la solución de algunos de los desafíos más urgentes del mundo contemporáneo. Las soluciones locales pueden y deben ser vistas como contribuciones esenciales a los retos existentes, tanto en términos de sostenibilidad, como de equidad y posibles soluciones manteniendo la preservación de ecosistemas como guardianes del equilibrio.

En esta primera edición que tendrá lugar del 15 al 22 de octubre hemos contado con la colaboración de The Festival Academy, quién tendrá un papel relevante sobre las dinámicas y necesidades para crear en territorios en guerra como en oriente proximo y en el mediterráneo.

Redefinir y Repensar el Concepto de Residencias Artísticas

Este encuentro es una oportunidad para reflexionar y repensar el significado de una residencia artística y cómo este concepto debe ser redefinido para mantener su relevancia y valor en el mundo contemporáneo. Las residencias artísticas se han convertido en un pilar fundamental para la creación artística, ofreciendo a los artistas un espacio temporal donde pueden alejarse de sus entornos cotidianos para sumergirse en un proceso creativo intensivo. Sin embargo, con la proliferación de espacios que se autodenominan “residencias artísticas”, es esencial cuestionar y analizar qué significa realmente una residencia artística y cómo se diferencia de otros espacios de trabajo creativo.

Project in Blanca

My proposal focuses on the creation of a sound performance that fuses electronic music, visual projections, poetry and body work. I am interested in the multiplicity of voices overlapped to electronic IDM bases. For this I will use tools such as voice synthesizer to produce choral voices, synthesizers and software to compose and produce the music.
Each piece will incorporate poems in different languages, such as Italian, English and a fictitious language. I want to work on the deconstruction of language and the dissolution of meanings, using the sound of the voice as a mere instrument, based on reflections of William S. Burroughs or Laurie Anderson. I want to investigate how the use of a fictitious language blurs the act of singing. The poems will be visually projected with the fusion of images of the landscape surrounding the residence. My intention is for the poems to be influenced by the landscape and this opens a new field of research for me. Incorporating the soundscape of the territory in my compositions is something I have always wanted and for which I feel I need some external impulse from specialized agents in the field.

I am also interested in delving into creation in a trans-disciplinary way. To create spaces where the forms of expression are blurred. I would like to create a multisensory experience that leaves reason aside and amplifies the senses.

My goal during the residency in Blanca is to develop this proposal, leaving me perrera by the territory and merging my creative universe with the landscape to give rise to a new language that I do not yet know. Questions arise: how to make pop-electronic songs dialogue with a rural landscape? what do the mountains and the desert bring to my intimate poems? what does my voice sound like over the sounds of a river?

Diane Barbé explores the intersections of ecology and experimental music, working with field recording as much as with synthesis, flutes and acoustic instruments. Her work delves into the manifold practices of musicking, crafting acoustic instruments with salvaged materials, developing ensembles of non-musicians in various countries and holding space for alternative music education.

Her next album comes out in 2023 with First Terrace Records, which features The Alien Kin, a growing ensemble of handmade whistles, flutes, clay vessels and sound makers, used to explore the playful spaces of interspecies communication, non- standardized tunings, and collective synchronisation. In 2022, Diane released the field recording album “a conference of critters”, recorded in Thailand during the pandemic, with the label forms of minutiae.

Diane collaborates with Laure Boer on the radical improvisation duo Arbore that opens onto drone, noise, lullabies, and technoid evocations of witchcraft. She has performed solo in experimental music festivals and venues like INA-GRM Paris, Nachtdigital and Documenta15 in Germany, AADK Spain, Ankali in Prague, and Maerz Musik in Berlin; she has taught in higher-education institutions like the Conservatoire de Musique de Marseille, Hildesheim Arts University, and Berlin’s Universität der Künste.

She has created environmental music instruments, sound pieces and installations at Floating University Berlin, Grabowsee in Brandenburg, the Raddusch biosphere in the Spreewald, the St Marthe quarry in Marseille, Global Forest in the Black Forest, and the biological research station of Kilpisjärvi in the Finnish arctic, always focusing on listening as a primordial practice of sounding.
