Diplom FINISHED

Meine diplomarbeit „fundort barcelona“ wurde wiedergabe meines lebens in der katalanischen hauptstadt. Die sicht einer deutschen - (ehm…) eigentlich innenarchitektur-studentin, auf die zonen des stadtzentrums, auf ihre bewohner und besucher, atmosphären und orte.

Ein buch entstand, poetischer und illustrativer ausdruck zu meinem Barcelona- la chica führt den leser auf 33 seiten durch die atmosphären und ihre geschichten in der innenstadt, collagen aus gefundenem altpapier und fotos aus der straße, augenblicke und besondere orte auf alten buchseiten, dargestellt in text und grundrissen.

Gefundene schätze aus der straße zu wertvoll und interessant um versteckt zu bleiben- das Diarama de Barcelona - eine 1,20 x 1,20 meter große holzkiste. Die ausstellung zum buch… La chica löst sich aus den illustrierten buchseiten und zeigt dem besucher der ausstellung in sechs fotografien, welche fundstücke ihr in die hände gefallen sind. Das Diarama recycelt meine fundstücke, konserviert meine erlebnisse anhand von 120 kleinformatigen fotos und sieben minuten bcn-sound…




 

My final project „fundort barcelona“ became representation of my life in the catalan capital. It´s the few of a german -(ehm...) in fact interior-design- student, on the zones of the citycenter, its inhabitants and visiters, atmospheres and places. A book was born, poetical and illustrative expression about my Barcelona-La chica leads the reader over 33 pages through the atmospheres and her stories in the center, collages of wastepaper and photos of the street, moments and special places on yellow bookpages, represented in words and street plans. Found treasures of the street too precious and interesting to be hidden- my exposition Diarama de Barcelona- a wooden box of 1,20m x 1,20m is the exposition to my book...La chica jumpes out of her illustration and presents in a serie of six photos which treasures she could capture in one year Barcelona. The Diarama recycles the pieces of the garbage, conserves my experiences by using 120 photos and seven minutes bcn-sound...

ok, everything here in bcn seems to change, myself, my destinations, my friends, my feelings for barcelona...it´s time to make plans, to move on...but where i should go, when and why?! sometimes i really miss a big friend who takes me where i ought to be and shows me from above all my chances in life!

so sweet and so sour...

...and thanx to Gerado, the best clown without permission who was ever seen in Barcelona...he was standing model for me in all the 6 months, has his special place in my book as an illustration and few lines in my text and 15 seconds in the bcnsounds of the exposition with his funny screechy voice. and the importenst thing...he makes me laugh!

all in one !!!

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh! i cant believe it! everything comes together! in one day (one of the best in my project) i´ve catched 3 flys in one time...the day started with the bcnsound- mix and chopin (its done, big thanx and loads of kisses to paco!)...then the call from PAPELICOLA to tell me that my book is bounded and ready to be read! its beyond belief to hold your work of 6 months in your hands! and last but not least...the negatives of the first shooting are developed and i think they are magical like Barcelona (tied hugs to sebas who can take beautiful pics even without tripod and lisa who can turn even me into a model with her makeup-talent)! thanx to all the ones who made my day perfect!!!! yes, i had to put in so many exclamation marks to show my ecstasy!
