Photography Ben PriamAn allegory in favour of a sustainable economy.
The stories of a family from a farm on the banks of the Urumea have prompted us to undertake this creative journey.
Their confessions have moved us, made us happy and angered us. But, above all, they have made us think.
–
Building yourself by building your house.
Our house, our second body.
Human chain work: covering the river, excavating the mountain, cutting the summit: railway, trucking, incinerator, airport... The house built has been demolished.
A painful process of awakening: learning the body, discovering pain... Building oneself by rebuilding the house.
