Moving people
We are strongly affected by the treatment of refugees worldwide. SommoS wants to raise awareness about refugees and solidarity. Support our campaign or come and join us during our 3-month journey from Barcelona to Brussels, via Paris! A symbolic path from the Mediterranean Sea to the Northern Europe which has already been taken by many refugees.
Mid-March we will start to walk from Brussels to Barcelona with people coming from different backgrounds. Everyone is welcome to come and walk with us, to host us or provide us a meal. With this journey, we want to show that challenges can be overcome when people across different borders work together and solidarity is strong.
During our walk, we will carry around a mobile structure with strong visibility around the theme illegal/solidarity.
It will continuously be embellished and decorated during the journey. The final result will depend on the active participation of people we meet during our journey. We want to build up awareness among people and we want people to reflect with us around these themes.
Furthermore, we will also organize and participate in different artistic performances.
This will allow us to show our reflections to a bigger public. Mid-March a big inauguration will take place in ‘el Parc de la ciutadella’ in Barcelona. Next, we will participate in the Zinneke parade in Brussels on May 12, 2018 and in Rêvons Rue in Paris on June 9.
At the end of our journey we will make a documentary and photo exhibition in collaboration with Jordi Oliver and Tati Finchi from the Centre d’Art i Natura (CAN) de Farrera and with Cineaste Anna Delgado (Pickpocket films). The exhibition will capture our experiences and reflections through videos and pictures. The expo with pictures and video will be hosted in Brussels, Paris and Barcelona.
SommoS is a collaborative project with partners in Barcelona,
Brussels and Paris. Jonas, Marta and all walkers involved will make the connection between them, by walking from Barcelona to Brussels. On their way, they will perform with La Fabrique des Impossibles in Paris and Zinneke in Brussels. Jordi, Finchi and Anna will capture this whole journey through their photo lens.
