* Globimed a Farrera. Juliol 2007
Un grup de científics de la xarxa temàtica espanyola GLOBIMED es van reunir a Farrera durant uns dies. Els científics de Globimed estudien el canvi global i la biodiversitat dels ecosistemes mediterranis. El seu objectiu és doble: d’una banda coordinar les activitats científiques de diferents grups del país i per l’altra consolidar les bases per l’establiment d’una xarxa de localitats on hi pugui haver investigació ecològica a llarg plaç.

Krista Says:
the
Centre d'Art i Natura is an oasis of comfort and luxury in
the
quiet, mountain living of the pyrenees. my wonderful
experience there
will
stay with me for the rest of my
life.
the
first thing that struck me about Farrera was that it is
more
remote and quiet than i had ever imagined. it is a tiny
village made
rocks,
inhabited by kind people, some sheep, deer, a few horses
and
roaming
cats.
from
the very start of the this residency i was aware that it
was up
to
me to be in the present and focus on my work. it is
isolated, but
not
lonely, as the comfort of the building, the incredible,
healthy
food
and extraordinary people make you feel very much at
home.
i am
proud of the work i made there, the landscape is inspiring
and
the
studio space is glorious. but even more, i feel enriched.
enriched
with
the connections i made with the other residents, with the
land,
and
the amazing Cesca and Lluis. their hard work and kindness
make The
Centre
d'Art i Natura a magical adventure.
