From Homesession, the curator Chun-Chi proposed us to develop a collaborative project whose aim was to establish links with foreign persons residing in Barcelona, especially in the Ciutat Vella district. Our idea of collective discussion that arose following address an issue consider how our experience so far and yet so close to our reality, how is immigration. Speaking between us on the proposal, debate arose on how and from what position we should deal with this approach, as equals, and trying to avoid contact by interests other than those involved. In this process of discussion, we realized that it was paradoxical put these conflicts on the table from a distance, so to try to put into play this unre solved conflict we decided to take the public space, so that people could participate in this .
Thus, raising the inverted approach: we propose the assembly of a panel discussion, open and inclusive, accompanied by beers usually bought from peddlers of foreign origin, with the contradiction that it entails. It will be held in the Plaça dels Angels for three main reasons. First, to meet in front of the art institution representing the MACBA; secondly, because immigration is remarkable; and finally, because it is a meeting place for young people like us, and therefore belongs to our daily reality.

Roue Libre Project
Initiated in 2015 by Jo Te-Jung Chen and co-founded with Fanny Lavergne, Remi Lesterle and Tristan Ligen, Roue Libre (Free Wheel) is a platform for experimental artistic actions. The name of the project « Roue Libre » refers to the freewheel mechanism: the momentary interruption of the rotational drive, the temporary shutdown of the transmission of drive between the engine and the wheel, the latter being nevertheless able to continue to rotate. Participants in each edition discuss about their trajectories, their derivatives, alternating between disconnection and coupling, between strength and friction, between freedom of a wheel and the constraints imposed by its rotation axis.
Participants: Jo Te-Jung Chen, Alexis Chevallier, Gabriel Haberland, Désaxées(Mélissa Brun & Adelyne Huguenin-Virchaux), Fanny Lavergne, Remi Lesterle, Tristan Ligen, Matthieu Stefani, Toco Vervisch, Romain Vicari.

bösediva
Elisa Duca in part of the artist duo bösediva founded in Berlin in 2009. She works in performance art, sculpture, video- and sound-installation. Her works usually last long, duration plays an important role. She's constantly looking for a balance between chaos and order. Her work is about the becoming of things in their infinite possibilities. Beauty is on display, often in huge intricately designed spaces, but it is not meant to overpower. she insists on offering spectators an aesthetic experience which can also be alienating, and aims at giving spectators the highest possible amount of autonomy to design their own experience.
