Los Muros Hablaron / The Walls Spoke – 2011-2013

Series of photographs

Los muros hablaron(The Walls Spoke) consists of two series of photographs, divided into Muros (Walls) and Zócalos (Plinths), showing the remains of erased graffiti on the walls of banking, political and public institutions in Barcelona and Madrid made by activists in the 15-M protests and the subsequent demonstrations by anti-austerity movements. In parallel, a video shows slogans used by these movements as a succession of texts against the soundtrack of voices from the protests.

Los muros hablaron (Les murs ont parlé) se compose de deux séries de photographies, les murs et socles. Des images de mots en disparition, presque invisibles, nous parlent du Mouvements des Indignés (Movimiento del 15M) qui est né en Espagne le 15 mai 2011. Les images montrent les effacements effectués sur les inscriptions que les participants de ces manifestations inscrivaient lors des concentrations de rue sur les murs des institutions financières et politiques de Barcelone et de Madrid. En parallèle, une vidéo reprend les slogans de ces mouvements sous la forme de textes des voix des protestations qui se suivent.
