A route through the lost neighbourhood - parts of the ciutat vella [old city] that have disappeared and we will relive through the vestiges that remain in the public space. The journey is a reflection on the particular relationship between memory and oblivion, remembrance and nostalgia.

This route examines our relationship with a place when there is a symbolic deficit, i.e. when its original meaning goes unnoticed, its memory is distorted, or ir is simply forgotten. As a general rule, we can distinguish between different aspects of the need to remember in relation to the disorientation and discouragement caused by the disappearance or distortion of the thing remembered. A collective remembrance, brought about by the desire to establish the sense of a place forever, is very different to the individual aspects of this remembrance when, for example, it is overlaid with nostalgia. When our interiorised, familiar landscape disappears (the shops and small businesses, streets, recreation areas, etc.) this is often seen as a traumatic loss, and this is why we tend to remember places with an emotional narrative overlaid on them which deforms the meaning of their constituent elements. At the same time, this narrative, in which we try to fix the sense that we gave to a place, is mediated by the vision of the dominant social group that largely imposes what it wants us to forget and what deserves to be remembered.
