Children claim their right to be able to play in the Villagarcian streets
TVG 07/08/2018 “One hundred children between 3 and 12 years old participate during this week in Vilagarcía in the workshops of “A Vila do Mañá“. It is a project that aims to discover, playfully, the vision that children have of the cities in which they live and to introduce ideas to modify them.
The project is based on an idea of the city in which cars rejected people. The ribbons in the old fish market square of Vilagarcía symbolize urban obstacles.
Children explore the playful side, make it their own, and tomorrow they will invade a street to create their own leisure space.“
Xornal de Vigo e Comarcas 05/08/2018 “The workshop was led by the award-winning architect Sandra González Álvarez and her team (PØSTarquitectos). Throughout these five days, concepts such as the invasion of spaces through games, frames, mirrors, lines and ribbons, three-dimensional elements and balloons were worked on, with the idea of seen the town as a space for citizens and not as a threat, as is usually the case.”
