Weaving the streets Presentation

Tejiendo la calle by Marina Fernández Ramos brings together the experiences of the homonymous project held in Valverde de la Vera, which she founded in 2013. A citizen cooperation project in which people, mostly elderly women, weave parasols reusing plastic and install them in the streets of the town to provide shade in summer. A personal approach of the promoter of the initiative, testimonies of weavers and neighbors, photographs of the context taken by Manuel V. Fernández and photographs by Asier Rua of the handmade artistic installation that every summer dresses, transforms and shades the streets of a small village in Extremadura.
