MARA ARANDA, CARLES MAGRANER Y JOTA MARTÍNEZ BRING ‘ THE MUSIC ENCLOSED ‘ A MENORCA

http://www.lithica.es/agenda.html

S’Hostal is an area of ​​limestone quarries located 1 km from the town of Ciutadella , in the east of the island of Menorca. In 1994 the association Líthica rented this space to save it  for a secure future of neglect and abandonment under the rubble.

S’Hostal quarries are characterized by contrast and constant duality. They live on one side , a landscape result of mechanical extraction, large and cubic geometry , and on the other , manual extraction old quarries , stone maze and vegetation , bonded organic forms and variety of spaces . Líthica work is to rescue these quarries giving them new life and intervening in them promoting their essence and garden maze
