Xavier Bobés (SP)

Six people gather around the table; the artist manipulates images, small objects, memories and time—not only theatrical time, but also historical time. The history of Spain, from the Civil War to the present day, is also made of birthday parties and football games. Is there something about today we’re forgetting?

Xavier Bobés is an actor, scenic creator and manipulator. He’s a self-learner in love with the poetry of objects. He carries out his work in the scope of Cia. Playground, which is the name given to the work and research method when it comes to everyday objects, providing them with new meanings in unexpected environments within a world of imagination.
