Ela Fidalgo · Habitar el Conflicto
January 20 – April 13, 2025
Artist Ela Fidalgo transforms Casal Solleric into a space for community creation with her exhibition Habitar el Conflicto, a project that invites participation and reflection on art as a tool for healing and social transformation.
Through a monumental sculpture of a mother, made from fabrics and emotions sewn together by nearly 500 participants, Fidalgo creates a symbolic space of protection and care. Additionally, she presents a chair with enveloping arms that invites the public to experience the embrace as a gesture of comfort and connection with art.
The exhibition is completed with an installation on the facade of Casal Solleric: fabric arms emerging from the windows in a symbolic embrace with the city, exploring the dialogue between the individual and the collective.
Key Points:
- Participation of social and integrative associations.
- Interactive installations that invite introspection.
