This project will also include an explanatory guide on everything that appears on the cards, placing the heritage and the figures that the deck contains in a landmark in the city of Murcia, be it a museum, a monument, a street or any other place. 'Manqud' and the role of silk in Murcia throughout history The third initiative presented this morning is 'Manqud', by designer Carmen L pez Br o, developed from a deep research project that has focused on silk as a representative material of the culture and traditions of Murcia throughout history.
Through this fabric, the relationship and exchange of knowledge that existed between the Three Cultures that were part of Murcia in the Middle Ages is explored. This research has two aspects that have been developed in a parallel but joint way: in the theoretical section the history of silk and the way in which the Three cultures influenced its development is studied; while the practical section deals with the design and production of silk textile elements that explore ancient techniques transferred to contemporary uses. The end result is a collection of textile pieces, showing the different colors that can be achieved using natural raw materials with ancient techniques.
In this way, using silk as a link between the Three Cultures, it is intended to enhance the importance of coexistence and collaboration that existed between them and that can be recovered in the present, highlighting the role of silk in Murcia throughout history.
The exhibition resulting from this research process will be presented in March at the Museum of the City. 'Where myrtles grow' It should be remembered that the selected projects are joined by 'Where the myrtles grow', another initiative of the line 'Medieval Murcia and Three Cultures' of the Cultural Reactives program, which currently houses the City Museum, in the Exhibition Hall Temporary It is a dynamic project by Vincent S ez and Pascual Mart nez, an expedition to the gardens of the city of Murcia to investigate and document those places where the different types of plants live, are born and are identified that make up these spaces. Vicente S ez and Pascual Mart nez are two photographers based in Murcia who combine their work as photographers with specialized training, advice on projects and the design of photographic exhibitions.
Taking the garden as a point of reference in common between these three cultures, the artists propose a multidisciplinary visual lexicon based on photography, to reflect on their creation and the relationship that they currently maintain.
