Plastic Biontes | Intervención artística do colectivo Basurama
Plastic biontes is an intervention in the Hejduk Towers that aims to establish a dialogue, through rubbish, between the city of culture and the city of Santiago. The towers as beacons, as social reference points, as symbols that unite history, memory and the possibility of a future yet to be imagined and built.
Plastic biontes reflects on the increasingly blurred boundaries between the ‘natural’ and the artificial, and on the interdependence of life forms. It proposes a mimesis between the existing and the new, in those symbioses that help us to imagine future forms of life, to pay attention to threats but which also challenge us to imagine forms of adaptation, collaboration and resilience.
Both interventions use leftover materials from the industrial production chains of nearby companies, reusing and re-signifying them to transform the skin of the towers. A play between the visible and the invisible.
Recovering the imagination, the power of observation, of what is close to us, of what exists around us but is invisible to the eye. Making abundance visible helps us to understand who we are.

Festivals
Forth edition of this festival, which is an encounter with the local community and the rock heritage of the area through local and sustainable cultural proposals.
The festivities dedicated to the Apostle, the patron saint of Santiago, of Galicia and of all of Spain, last for about a fortnight. This festival combines religious and official solemnity, tradition and entertainment, which turn the entire city into a large fiesta.
July 24th and 25th are the two main days. On the night of July 24th there is an impressive firework display in honour of the Apostle, visible from different points in the city.
Concert as part of the programme of the Apostle's Festival 2025
Concert held every year on the Day of Padrón de Santiago, as part of the Festivities of the Apostle 2025.
A series of concerts, framed within the framework of the Apostle's Festivities, in which classical music becomes a compass and landscape, leading us along deep and resonant emotional paths.
