PERIMETER
SPACE OF MEMORY. MONUMENT TO THE WOMEN'S PRISON OF LES CORTS
Designed by Ricart, Henrich, Hernández, 2024. Barcelona City Council. Civic participation: Plataforma Futuro Monumento Cárcel de Mujeres de les Corts.
One of the most important topics developed on this process is the territorial expression of the disappeared prison. In 2024, we instal Corten steel pieces with phrases from testimonies of Les Corts. Exactly in the place where decades ago the walls of the provincial women's prison of the Franco regime stood, now you can read quotes referring to the situation of imprisonment and repression, of María Salvo, Tomasa Cuevas, Victoria Pujolar, Isabel Vicente, Anna Solà, Soledad Real, Mercedes Salamero, Julia Romera and Carme Claramunt.
The testimony is combined with the perimeter of the vanished prison.
