“Cartographies of Walking” is a drift through l’Embut landscape approached from a bodily engagement with the territory. Walking is not merely a way of moving from one place to another, but a way of being somewhere: observing, stopping, crouching down, listening, losing one’s sense of direction for a moment and allowing the environment to set the pace. Throughout the walk, participants will collect traces, make notes and record sensory impressions in order to build a collective cartography of this landscape in the Delta. A map that does not begin with fixed coordinates, but with shared experience: what the body perceives, what the ground reveals and what emerges when we walk with a different kind of attention.
Gemma Jané Tarragó
Born in Sant Celoni in 2002, Gemma Jané Tarragó is a visual artist who graduated in Fine Arts from the University of Barcelona. Her practice moves between painting, drifting and installation, through slow processes rooted in walking, material gathering and direct observation of the landscape. Strongly connected to the Montseny region, she explores soils, colours and geological materials that she often transforms into pigments. Her work has been shown in venues and festivals such as Sala dels Trinitaris, Espai Cràter, Stripart and Intersección, and she has taken part in residencies including GLOPS, Roser de Foc, Cal Gras and ENFooCA. She is currently a member of the Ontologías del Color research group at Hangar.org and of the TàNDEM programme at Casa R.A.R.O.
