Working with the plan
experimentation with textures
The aim of ‘A Vila da Maña’ is to change the model of town or city, we believe that another may be possible. This is achieved through the leading participation of local girls, boys and teenagers who, working with the fundamental concepts through tactical urbanism actions, become active citizens capable of transforming their spaces.
In this case, you work with the space, being the body that travels and plays in the spaces with all the senses deployed, through the experimentation of light, texture, color, sound… transforming public spaces into common ones.
“But the line hides among its other properties, and ultimately, the deeply hidden desire to procreate a plane, thus becoming a denser entity, more closed in itself. […] When the line dies, at what point does the plane emerge? […] By basic plan is understood the material surface called to receive the content of the work. […] The schematic basic plane is limited by 2 horizontal and 2 vertical lines, and thus acquires, in relation to the environment that surrounds it, an independent entity.”
Kandinsky
Colour your city
The city/village in which we are working has been turned into a playground, a laboratory of experimentation where children and teenagers can act from a new point of view.
