Taller al Festival FLIC — turning a teenager’s poem into a mural

Rebobinart took part in workshops promoting a love of literature run by Tantàgora in the Besòs neighbourhood. The sessions focused on literary creation — poetry, in this case — with teenagers from the neighbourhood. Building on each participant’s own writing, the group then worked collectively in two teams. One team would create an artistic mural on a wall in the neighbourhood, and the other would make a computer animation. Artist T de Tacto worked with the young people on creating the mural, which eventually became one of the Murs Lliures spaces in the neighbourhood.

As mentioned, on the 29th, to mark the presentation of the Children and Young People’s Literature and Arts Festival (FLIC), artists T de Tacto and Zems performed a poem written by one of the young people who had taken part in the June workshop, turning it into a piece of urban art. The intervention took place at the same Murs Lliures spaces, and the poem chosen was one by the young writer Saba, which reads:

La dona és grossa
treballa molt poc
i la fa mal el cos
la lluna li canta una cançó
