Inauguration of Marta Lastra exhibition “A place to get lost”

On Thursday, March 6, we inaugurated the exhibition of the artist Marta Lastra who, for the first time, exhibits in the Sala Rusiñol. During the presentation, and as seen in the previous image, we had the visit of the mayor of our city, Josep M. Vallès.

Marta Lastra builds the space with experience, takes photos, draws, paints, accumulates images. She uses different technical procedures and participates in all its expressive elements. She uses plastic resources such as the incorporation of collage or superimposed planes, while exploring the expressiveness of painting and the reality of photography.

The journalist and writer Alicia Falmes was in charge of talking to us about the work she presents at the Sala Rusiñol. Here we leave the entire video of the presentation where you can listen:

Here are some moments from the afternoon:

As always, once the speeches are over, we raffle off an original work among those attending. Here we have the lucky one:
