El Movimiento Cultural Santa Elena
|
El Movimiento Cultural Santa Elena Is a group of interests founded in 2014 that creates, promotes and amplifies artistic, cultural and processes around cultural heritage in the territory of Santa Elena. Our intention is to generate, channel and support actions so that the territorial identity of this space that we love and inhabit is based on a vital and dynamic cultural practice, aware of its roots and traditions and promoter of its cultural processes in gestation. We are interested in creating and strengthening links between the current cultural and natural heritage and the new generations and their concerns. With our community proposal we want to respond to the consequences of the economic, social and cultural changes that this region is facing, making Santa Elena a point of reference for cultural and natural heritage awareness, as well as for artistic creation and experimentation. A place with its own cultural vitality and diversity, in intimate relationship with memories and the environment.
El Movimiento Cultural Santa Elena is led by two initiatives of the territory: The Espacio Arte Foundation and the youth group Dimensión Bosque. |
The Youth Forum of Heritage of Santa Elena is conceived as an experience that combines academic and empirical knowledge in order to explore the multiple aspects of patrimonial relevance in Santa Elena, looking methodologically to approach the public in a practical and experiential way. We are interested in experiencing and reflecting on the cultural and material heritage of the territory departing from the subjectivity of each participant, their daily practices and their specific interests, thus proposing a relationship of mutual enrichment between memories, history and contemporary practices. We start from a methodology that proposes artistic exploration, the learning of ancestral trades, transgenerational communication and the implementation of technology as vehicles to generate a vital and strong bond between the cultural and material heritage and the young people of the territory.

CUESTA ARRIBA Es una ruta para caminantes que busca ofrecer una perspectiva sensible, lúdica y esclarecedora sobre el territorio y sus memorias, orientando la oferta hacia la población del Territorio Cultural de Santa Elena, especialmente su población juvenil. Esta ruta patrimonial que queremos consolidar no está pensada en primera instancia como ruta turística, sino como una estrategia de reapropiación y una forma de re-conocernos como vecinas y vecinos que somos. Creemos que el sentido de PERTENENCIA es el único antídoto ante la presión urbanística y la gentrificación. |
