No Artists, No Creative District aims to be a loudspeaker for reflecting on the transformation of the neighbourhood of Poblenou, where art and creativity have been drivers for change. The installation symbolises what could be the absence of artists in the community, highlighting the importance of the configuration of Barcelona’s creative district. It also invites critical reflection on gentrification and the challenges facing artists and creators in a constantly evolving urban environment. The work looks to generate debate about coexistence and mutual benefit between those involved in the territory. What would the district be like without artists? And artists, without the creative district?

Lluria, a leading brand in architectural lighting, joins the Poblenou Urban District and all the artists of the city’s creative district to assert the importance of the creative community in configuring urban spaces full of life. Lluria collaborates with creators and professionals to offer light solutions that transform settings and highlight the architecture and cultural identity of spaces. This alliance reaffirms its commitment to local talent and the value of art.
