Photography Exhibition: 'Market of Memory'
14 September 2026 – 26 September 2026 · 10:00
Mercat Encants Barcelona - Fira de Bellcaire, el Fort Pienc, Eixample
This photography exhibition by Cristina Ortiz Castillo explores the world of second-hand fairs as spaces of memory, where objects loaded with stories and meanings acquire new lives and new ways of being seen. Through a selection of images ranging from toys, mechanical objects and old photographs to household items, vintage clothing and doll collections, the project offers a visual journey through different periods, aesthetics and imaginaries. The collection invites reflection on the symbolic value of objects beyond their function, highlighting their ability to preserve memories, identities and emotions over time. The exhibition is structured in three parts: - Today's images of the past - earlier images of yesterday's objects - images of relationships between dolls of today and yesterday.
