Where are the rights here?
Cartographies of daily life
Project made as part as
The project works with the strength and the fragility of women from Latin America, living and working as home employees in the so-called “caring” sector in Barcelona. Their lives, their stories of migration, their powerful attitude confronting the difficulties of legal fragility, and lack of proper work rights, are the core of this project.
The project emphasises on daily life, these micro-universes made of spaces they regularly visit, movements in trains and buses from home to work, daily actions and objects drawing a sensitive map of affections in the city. These maps or cartographies talk about the presence of determined and powerful women, most of them invisible to the system.
The final format was a performative conference, a photographical installation and a collective meal.
