Eulàlia Rovira. ‘The Outline of An Arch’

We were a sea and we have not seen it. And not just any sea, but a tropical one. The eyes do not serve to understand a time scale difficult to imagine. But somehow we intuit that what surrounds us has not always been here, and that what we are is not what we were. The installation of Eulàlia Rovira approaches to the basement of the Cathedral of Girona at the quarries on the edge of the city from which the material that forms the building itself was extracted. Stones made from the remains of extinct marine animals with which to doubt whether the inert is really as immobile and as lifeless as language says.
