Intersections is a photography installation conceived and executed for the Can Framis Museum by students on the Masters course in Photography and Design at ELISAVA, Escuela Universitaria de Diseño e Ingeniería de Barcelona, in collaboration with the Fundació Vila Casas.
25 emerging artists meet at a crossroads. In their quest to break through barriers and mould their individual and generational identities they explore subjects such as gender equality, human and animal rights, bigotry, freedom, life and death. Giving voice to the concerns of our time, they forge brand-new unions and foster harmony.
As creators of images they express themselves in Light, Form and Colour. Aware of their position, both in the world as well as at the head of a long line of artists, they use tradition as a stepping stone.
The Can Framis Museum serves as a meeting place for constructive dialogue between the established and the emergent. Each of the artists weaves their subject matter into one of the works in the permanent collection while also taking it as their starting point. The architecture of the museum and its surroundings provides the habitat in which the final pieces, literally set into the walls of the building, take on life of their own. The past becomes the foundation upon which are constructed declarations related to the liquid times we are living in.
