Carmela, the sculpture by Jaume Plensa that managed to remain in Barcelona
Barcelona has a great hidden treasure: works of art located in its streets. Today we travel to Carrer Sant Pere Més Alt to discover a charismatic work by one of our most international artists. It is Carmela by Jaume Plensa, a sculpture that was temporarily installed in Barcelona but, thanks to the determination of the people of Barcelona, managed to remain permanently installed in the city.
"For me, this process is a fusion between photography and sculpture, between the ephemeral and the eternal; ultimately, between the human and the divine," Jaume Plensa
