Cascades is an artistic project by Júlia Rúbies Subirós, born from the personal need to connect to the intergenerational fabric of performance artists from her hometown after having been away for some years. By understanding the artistic practice as a gathering place for sharing knowledge and experimenting together, Cascades aims to share strategies as proof of affection and as a catalysing agent of collective practice.
We would like to share with you how Cascades emerged from meeting an archive, and how it unfolded in intergenerational transfers among artists. Cascades deems the idea of the artistic practice as a producer of affective communities to be of the greatest importance.
This performance is part of a program that opens a reflection on the notion of transmission and critical thinking about practices and knowledges in performing arts today. A four-day program activated in different spaces of the Mercat dels Flors.
