Argileak

In June 1931, two brothers saw an apparition of the Virgin while they were returning home. Groups of people from all over the region began to flock to the small town of Ezkio, in Gipuzkoa, with a marked ritual. That event changed the paradigm of faith from “believe in what you don’t see” to “believe in what you see”. Almost a century later, Patxi Burillo Nuin places a cinema screen in the same fields to produce a beautiful miniature. Argileak captures the gaze of a child, as if it were working a true miracle, that of questioning ourselves about the act of seeing in times that make this difficult to do. (SdB)
