LES ARRIVANTS / THE ONES WHO ARRIVE
PEPO DEVESA
During 2017, 171,635 migrants arrived in Europe through the Mediterranean. 3,116 stayed on it. Only the 5 busiest ports in the Mediterranean totaled more than10 million cruise ship the same year. Ways to understand traffic, ways to understand the sea, ways to get to port. Home Movie found footage and anonymous real stories faced each other.
Pepo Devesa (1991) is an architect in training from Cartagena, Spain. His work revolves around the limits of where architecture and design meet other disciplines, creating scenography, theatrical proposals, artistic installations, urban interventions, landscapes and much more. The ones who arrive is his debut that emerged as a result of a five-year long experimentation process with found footage in collaboration with Salvi Vivancos and Memorias Celuloides project. In 2015 together they created Laboratorio de Cine Artesanal LACA (Craft Film Lab), a space for developing different experimental work processes with analogue formats.
