TRÀILER DOCUMENTAL “ENCAIX” from Ignasi Llobet and Eva Rodríguez on Vimeo.
Trailer of the documentary made by Eva Rodriguez and Ignasi Llobet on a work of art Contemporary artists Jordi Marcet and Rosa Vila-Abadal.
“The pieces fit. Tones attract. Not all fit in harmony, some accept the company, others turn away. Place the right piece, but you know that this piece marks the direction of the end . the fragments escape, slip, fall down and many are broken. one by one. one plus one. lace. lace. lace. Feel the pleasure of the fit, agile and fast. a magic moment: everything fits. Everything flows. “
