Poblenou en Pantalla is a photographic installation conceived in a physical and online format and produced by the students of the Elisava Master’s Degree in Photography and Design 2021-2022 for the Can Framis Museum, in collaboration with the Fundació Vila Casas.
Approached as a visual anthropology project that carries the collective signature of the students of the Elisava Master’s Degree in Photography, Poblenou en Pantalla offers a plural vision of the characters and human encounters that take place under the skyscrapers and old factories of 22@, Barcelona’s technological, creative and scientific district par excellence.
As imaging professionals who systematically use technology, the authors of this exhibition acknowledge the crucial impact of screen devices on the experience of the world, communication and information exchange, as well as their potential to boost the sense of individual and collective urban identity within the two square kilometers of 22@.
The authors of the installation would like to express their gratitude to all the people who allowed them to photograph them: “We do not fail to keep in mind all those individuals who are essential to the well-being of the local community and who do not figure in this project”.
