“Interblocs” es un proyecto del artista Javier de Riba que pretende dar una nueva vida al suelo de la ciudad de Tarragona. Aprovechando los huecos inservibles entre edificios, de Riba crea auténticas maravillas, convirtiendo un suelo desgastado en un juego de baldosas llenas de luz y color. Su manera de trabajar no tiene desperdicio.
Es también la forma de denunciar el olvido de estas partes de la ciudad, verdaderas “tierra de nadie” invisibles para todo el mundo menos para quien vive allí, gente con rendas muy bajas. El color de sus mosaicos contrasta con el abandono que los rodea y ha conseguido llamar la atención de vecinos y curiosos y lograr uno de sus objetivos: conseguir visibilidad para este problema.
“Interblocs” is an art project of Javier de Riba with one specific aim: breathe life to the floors of Tarragona. Taking benefit of useless spaces between buildings, de Riba create true marvels, transforming careless floors into bright and colorful tiles. His work process is worth to see.
It is his way of reporting that those parts of the city are completely forgotten and that they are actually “no-man’s land”, invisibles for everyone but for those who live there, who tend to be low-income people. Mosaics’ colors are in contrast with the abandonment around and have attracted the attention of neighbors and visitors. So, the aim is got: make the problem visible.
