Reflections on 'heritage versus culture' from Mariona Marcet Blasi

Last year, after our capacity building and artist residency at LAC, global events took an unexpected turn, and our worlds and projects were turned upside down by COVID-19.

The summer that followed was equally full of unrest, the pandemic exacerbated inequalities across our society, and the effects of structural racism were brought to light by the Black Lives Matter protests. Reflecting on these issues in the context of CONTESTED DESIRES, Mariona Marcet from Barcelona partner organisation La Bonne, dissects what can be learnt from these events, what we need to deconstruct and challenge within this project.
