Journey to Mars

Logbooks. A collective creation project

10 creators, activists and thinkers and 10 young migrants, wards and former wards of state, are the crew members on the Journey to Mars, a project that brings them together to think about two major concepts: the future and the journey. The red planet becomes both the metaphor for a possible tomorrow and the horizon for a journey that the 20 crew members will make together in a series of meetings over two months.

Youssef Aboud, Ismail El Hachlaf, David Fernàndez, Tanit Plana and Lucía Serra

Four bodies in movement that never touch the ground. An unclear horizon, often confusing. Desire, in the background, or escape. A home that falls apart and is rebuilt to be destroyed again. A right that ceases to be a right to make each space more liveable: move, moult skin, build a house. ...

Recipe

Mamadou Tafsir Diallo, Blanca Haddad, Omar Oudaay, Tanit Plana and Martí Sales

When we read a recipe and follow its instructions, we have no idea what the result is going to be. The production process always eludes us: there is something in our hands that makes the result different, incalculable. Imagine it: cut out a piece of the future, beat the dreams to form peaks, ...
