Mapping Llum de Paraula, tribute to Miquel Martí i Pol
20/11/2021
Miquel Martí i Pol is one of the most popular and beloved poets in Catalan literature. The video mapping Llum de Paraula (Light of word) has been created to pay tribute to the town’s poet. His life and poems have been the narrative axis of the audiovisual mapping in which feelings and emotions inherent to the human condition have been worked on. An intense 12-minute show in which the visual content establishes a dialogue with the architecture on which it is projected, the voice that recites brings emotional depth to the experience and the music that accompanies it just creates the atmosphere.
The mapping was premiered on the facade of the church of Sant Pere de Riudebitlles, Alt Penedès, during the Miquel Martí i Pol cycle 2021. Months later, in the summer of 2022, the videomapping artwork was shown in its temple, in the poet's life town, in La Blava of Roda de Ter, the factory where Martí i Pol had worked. Coinciding with the 50th anniversary of his book "La Fàbrica", the event was part of the cycle "Summer at The Factory. Culture and Literature" organized by the Miquel Martí i Pol Foundation and which has the poet's poetry as its central focus.
