A mountain inside home (Herald St.)

It is said that in Vic there is a house that has a mountain inside. It is also said that if you make a hole on the floor of some first floor’s rooms, you will find rock. At Arc de Triomf”s underground station (Barcelona) I step on the pieces of a broken floor tile. cruc-cruc. The ceramic shards are unstable and unstucked on the paving. They follow the swing of my weight caused by my body’s movement. At 13-14 Herald St. there are some pieces of polysterene tiles still hanging from the ceiling. Someone placed them there, maybe with the goal of making a sound insulation. Later on, someone tried to take them off. Strength and balance in flow; my body, the bodies of the others, the space, time and the earth. The image of a raw pea under or on a floor tile; still a mountain inside home.
