Throughout the day you are installing other artistic activities that will surprise the public the next day in various public spaces such as the Plaza of Spain, where Meva, Collective Architecture, has designed a new life to the role of newspapers with those who have made hundreds of little paper birds woven into a mesh that becomes a public resource of shade.
Other facilities seek beauty in the decay of the billboards used and abandoned, and "Available Space" Ortega Monica Garcia, the decontextualization of objects or pursuing new perceptions of them, as in "S / T" Sergi Quiñonero ago, which anudará 14 empty cages of birds in a tree.
A big "Pastickman" with Oscar San Miguel allows us to look into human.
Dante Marquez seeks a relationship "I" and the other on "Otherness" and Karim El Hamri, a member of the movement of "street art" as in "You're not a dummy, struggle," speaks on violence against women, physical and psychological in the day everyday.
