The Servei de Rehabilitació Comunitària and the Hospital de Dia, both part of the Fundació Pere Mata, and the Escola d’Art i Disseny of Amposta have once again joined forces to take part in the project Sequere, by the visual artist Marco Noris. The word sequere comes from Latin and means “to follow” / “to flow”.

It is an artistic project about time and memory, which begins with a symbolic act: collecting water in the Delta of the Ebro and walking along the Segre River to return it to its source.

During the crossing, the artist will document the experience with various recording tools: drawing, live painting, photography and audiovisuals. The performative action will be followed by studio production, through symbolic canvases in which the narrative texture —biographical and historical—, the poetic text, the place names and the daily routes of the journey will converge to form experiential and conceptual, historical and geographic maps. As support for the pictorial work, an audiovisual piece will be added, combining moving images, poetic texts and sounds gathered along the way.

We were able to join the walk on the second stretch of the route: from Amposta to Tortosa. We covered roughly five kilometres, accompanying the artist and other people who also joined in.

The project has been produced by the Institut d’Estudis Ilerdencs and the Diputació de Lleida and will conclude with an exhibition at the La Gòtika hall in Lleida in the 2023 season.

The «Tosquellian walks» included in the Sequere project are an opportunity to give continuity to the collective/institutional work carried out during 2021-22 within the project «Puc entrar la meva veu aquí?» by Nora Ancarola, which framed the «Tosquellian correspondences» as a way of opening up what had remained confined, especially the word.

On this walk, the proposal is to embody the bond that has been built and to open other routes where our feet become readers of the territory and vehicles of thought.

This passage, which follows the flow of the Segre upstream, is an invitation: a proposal that becomes an event of the path and that invites search, care and community transformation.
