Land Art Festival and Ephemeral Installations in Cardedeu | Hilari(um)<\/h4>\n

Last September, the grounds of the Sant Hilari hermitage provided the perfect setting for the first edition of the land art event: Hilari(um) Festival. This event brought together the vision of different artists who used nature as a medium to express their stance on climate change.<\/p>\n

Land art: the art of nature<\/h2>\n

Land art<\/strong>, also known as earthwork<\/strong>, is a movement within contemporary art in which nature is both the beginning and the end<\/strong>. Most land art works throughout history have been created using natural elements and are generally produced outdoors, which is why they tend to disappear over time. For this reason, the discipline is considered ephemeral, with photography and video serving as tools to preserve and document the works over time.<\/p>\n

“The stone materials we use in our landscapes, squares, streets, or gardens can have a long life\u2014or rather, an infinite one. If we value and make use of their life cycle, we can create spaces with diverse forms, textures, and functionalities over the 100-year lifespan represented in the 17 sections of this circle. These 17 textures, which you can experience by walking slowly and barefoot, represent the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of environmental, social, and economic nature, which guide countries, companies, and organizations worldwide toward achieving the 2030 Agenda.” <\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Breinco\u2019s commitment to creating 100% recyclable products, also made with recycled materials and always seeking material recovery, inspired artist Eli Guillamon Villalba<\/a>. The artist showcased our Llosa Filtra<\/a> and Terana\u00ae<\/a> pavements to recreate his work \u201cEl cercle de la mat\u00e8ria\u201d.<\/p>\n
