Out of doors
Workshop
All audiences

Escribir una barca, construir una historia (Write a boat, build a story) is the title of an artistic practice workshop that explores formal and conceptual strategies for dealing with the stories of others, using art as a possible tool for political reflection. The workshop is part of the Como una casa project, in which Rojas worked on the basis of anonymous testimonies from two migrants who were detained in Centres d'Internamiento de Extranjeros (CIE). The workshop takes place in two parts, on Thursday and Friday.

All dates

For two days, in the historic space of the Nereo shipyards, stories will be shared and different artistic disciplines, such as video, sculpture, writing and drawing, will be explored to address them. Astilleros Nereo is a historic shipyard located on the seafront in the Pedregalejo district, and has been listed as an asset of cultural interest since 2005. The shipyard is still active today in the construction of boats, in particular the typical "jábega malagueña".
