Sprouts of memory
Barcelona (ES) 2018-2019
Director: Xavi Bové
In collaboration with Onionlab.
Light Installation with LED bars and music at El Born CCM Peace and Freedom.
Taking ‘Tree of Memory’ as a prologue, which was created to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the bombing in Barcelona, Sprouts of Memory represents an allegory to peace and freedom through sound and light.
50 2m tall LED columns are placed vertically at the ruins of ancient Barcelona. Each of the bar gets illuminated from the ground to the sky, representing the opposite move of bombs falling, and also, the growth of a new life. Each bar represents an individual whom, with a subtle sprout of voice, becomes part of a general choir, a claim for freedom and peace in memory of all the voices
that disappeared forever.
