Project in collaboration with Inés Rodríguez González

It is September, in Martim Moniz Square, our possible first intervention area, distinguished by the lack of green spaces, their tradition of hosting multicultural activities and promote links between diverse population of the neighborhood.

 

We propose an umbraculum for the light city, one alternative for the trees shadows during the first period of the autumn, when leaves star to fall. We want to “paint “on prospect green the city of the pave.
But a soft green, use by the citizens to show their ideas (write thoughts, sometimes is easier if you do supported by the anonymity), dreams, to share with the world, inaccessible issues for that moment. They are flying in the sky, but they will fall day a day, the same with the leaves. When they fall people may read the human projection, so the projection will be accessible and may be followed.

 

We would like to propose a kind of “green week” profiting the good weather that we have in September, and the green shadow of our trees. We will do a popular lunch, a “dejeneur sur l’herve”, below the protec! on of our projections dreams. Neighbors and volunteers will participate on a communalexperience for their neighborhood, fixing set links; and later it will be intensify by the next activities.

 

As all good lead, our lead can not be only a ephemeral action that when is finished go to the rubbish. We want a life action, a close cycle; so as, our material will be recollected by the neighborhoods, “freguesia” in each case, and use in a workshop for a new life. For example, recycle as Christmas tree for an “economic” decoration for each neighborhood. With that, we achieve the relationship of the participants, working for the same goal. Of course, they will read the ideas writing on the balloons, so maybe they will generate an argument, a research for the solution of every different problem.
