This exhibition is part of the Workshop on Entropic Landscape (2nd ed.), which was held from mid-April to May 2024. Throughout the workshop, guided field visits were carried out, always on foot, an option that favors the careful observation of the landscape, in order to study the entropic landscapes that the city of Valencia and its surroundings offers us. Among the routes carried out are: Faitanar-Sociópolis-La Torre; from the Colón metro station to the Entrada del Francés in a straight line; the new channel of the Turia river; and El Perellonet.
As the closing of the program, a sharing of all the experiences and different perspectives of the participants on these landscapes was proposed, through the records made, resulting in this polyphonic ensemble.
We present our practice with the desire to encourage observers to continue it, as a process of public participation, raising your own concerns, as recipients of our records but also as an active part of the city. Inviting you to start a record and a curious look at your environments, characterized by a mix of aesthetics, artifacts and stimuli, which we have often ended up assuming as everyday and consequently deactivating their reflective potential.
Our set of experiences also aims to encourage us to consider the elements of the landscape as instruments capable of moving us or making us react. It is proposed for such diverse purposes that can range from satisfaction to complaint.
We claim each of the subjectivities, presenting ours as a starting point to discover places as paradigmatic as a farmhouse under an enormous infrastructure that serves as the entrance to the AVE in the city of Valencia; a street in the urban center that breaks with the direction of the rest of the streets; a closed park and landfill; or a railing that indicates the end of the city.
It will be in this reflective mobility where we can understand the landscape as a superposition of layers, defining it as André Corboz titles one of his books: landscape as palimpsest. An entropic landscape that, like a mosaic, weaves its way.
