Urumeako Atlas Emozionala:
Urumeako Atlas Emozionala proiektu bat baino askoz gehiago da: Donostiako herritar guztiei irekitako gonbidapena da, Urumea ibaiarekin dugun harremana ehundu duten historian, emozioetan eta bizipen partekatuetan murgiltzeko. Biztanleen lankidetza aktiboaren bidez, proiektu honek ibaiaren inguruko memoriak eta sentimenduak jaso eta islatu nahi ditu, hiriaren garapenaren eta bilakaeraren lekuko mutu baina funtsezkoa izan baita.
Cristina Enea Fundazioak bultzatuta eta Donostia Kultura, Tabakalera eta Aranzadi Zientzia Elkartearen babesarekin, Urumeako Atlas Emozionalaren helburua herritarren parte-hartzean oinarritutako lan kultural eta artistikoa sortzea da. Atlas hau ez da datu edo istorioen bilketa soil bat, baizik eta sormen prozesu bat non bizipen pertsonalak gure hiriaren nortasuna ibaiarekin duen harremanaren bidez erretratatzen duen lan baten ardatz nagusi bihurtuko diren.
Erretratu kolektibo hau eraikitzeko, zure parte-hartzea behar dugu. Online inkesta baten eta taldeko elkarrizketen bidez, Urumearekin lotzen zaituzten oroitzapenak, pasadizoak, bizipenak eta sentimenduak bilduko ditugu. Testigantza bakoitza baliotsua eta bakarra da, eta Donostiaren aniztasuna eta aberastasun emozionala islatzen dituen obra bat sortzen lagunduko du. Herritarren parte-hartzea da proiektuaren bihotza, eta hori gabe ezingo genioke atlas emozional horri bizia eman.
Online inkesta zure oroitzapenak eta sentsazioak ibaiaren inguruan erraz partekatzeko diseinatuta dago, eta zure ekarpena funtsezkoa izango da mapa emozional hau eraikitzeko. Zure ahotsa, oroitzapenak eta istorioak entzun nahi ditugu, denboran iraungo duen ondare kultural eta artistikoa elkarrekin sortu ahal izateko.
Esperientzia horiek bildu ahala, atlasa osatuko duten gai nagusiak zehaztuko ditugu. Ondoren, emaitza horiek dibulgaziozko argitalpen batean eta Urumearen izaera eta historia emozionala islatzen duen erakusketa batean islatuko dira. Horrela, proiektu hau esperientzia ukigarri eta ulergarri bihurtuko da komunitate osoarentzat.
Urumeako Atlas Emozionala aukera paregabea da gure ingurune naturalarekin konektatzeko eta ibaiak gure eguneroko bizitzan eta Donostiako historian duen garrantzia gogoratzeko. Elkarrekin, oroimen kolektibo hori berreskuratu eta gorde dezakegu, eta, aldi berean, gure hiriak Urumearekin, iragana, oraina eta etorkizuna lotzen dituen ibaiarekin, duen lotura biziberritzen lagundu.
Ez itxaron gehiago: bete online inkesta eta parte hartu Urumearen oroimenean zeharreko bidaia zirraragarri honen eraikuntzan. Zure istorioa gurearen zati bat da. Lagun iezaguzu emozioen mosaiko hau ehuntzen eta Donostiaren arima eta ibaia islatuko dituen obra bati bizia ematen.
Egitasmo hau Cristina Enea Fundazioak eta Donostiako Udalak sustatzen dute, María José Noain Maura (LOs Viajes de Aspasia) eta Helga Massetani Piemonte (Bitamine) koordinatzaileen laguntzarkin.

Intx'Apain
Intx’Apain is an urban art festival that, over three days, transforms around ten walls across the neighbourhood into spaces for creation and connection, bringing together local and international artists and the neighbourhood community. The Basque language will be at the heart of the murals, guided by the central theme Zein da zure hitza? (“What’s your word?”), an invitation to artists and residents to take words as a starting point for creating, sharing and coming together.
Music, rap, bertsolaritza (Basque improvised sung poetry), breakdance, workshops and participatory activities developed in collaboration with ikastolas (Basque-language schools), local associations and community organisations will accompany the artistic interventions, turning the festival into a collective experience.

Urumeako Atlas Emozionala - Erakusketa
Body, Memory and Riverbed
This Atlas does not follow a river: it immerses itself in it.
The exhibition invites us to read the Urumea through those who have inhabited it and the gestures that remain embedded in its memory. Bodies bent over the water to wash clothes. Bodies pulling oars in rhythm. Bodies carrying sand, bottling oil or rolling tobacco. Bodies dancing at local festivities, holding flags, crossing bridges time and again until these crossings became part of everyday life.
The river thus emerges as an organism in constant transformation, but also as a place marked by the traces others have left behind. Some remain, while others have disappeared along with the trades, factories, forms of leisure and ways of relating to its waters. Exploring the Urumea through the body also means asking ourselves what remains of all this, and what kind of relationship we wish to build with the river from now on.
This exhibition marks the culmination of a project developed over three years. It began with a research process that gave voice to local residents. Through surveys, group interviews and participatory workshops, we gathered the perceptions of the people of San Sebastián regarding the river that runs through their city: memories, images, sensations, historical information and more.
Drawing on these testimonies, we created a written atlas, a publication comprising ten narratives that explore the history of the river, the city and the ways in which people inhabit these two places. Now, these ten narratives take on a different language as they enter the exhibition space: words give way to images, sound and movement, revisiting the same events through other ways of telling and experiencing them.

Emotional Management in the Art Ecosystem: Towards a Decalogue of Good Cultural Practices
Bitamine is launching a research project on the emotional, professional, and relational conditions that shape the artistic and cultural ecosystem in Gipuzkoa.
The project starts from a simple yet necessary question: how do precarity, uncertainty, open calls, production rhythms, and sector dynamics affect the everyday lives of the people who sustain this ecosystem?
Through this questionnaire, we aim to gather experiences, perceptions, and forms of discomfort, while also identifying practices of care, strategies of resistance, and possible paths for transformation. The ultimate goal is to develop a collective diagnosis and a decalogue of good cultural practices that can contribute to a more sustainable, fair, and caring cultural sector.
The research is coordinated by Helga Massetani Piemonte (Bitamine) and developed in collaboration with:
Mónica Crespo Doval
Degree in Sociology, Academic Secretary and Tutor Lecturer at UNED-Bergara.
Larraitz Nerea Zumeta Sánchez
PhD in Psychology, researcher and tutor at UNED-Bergara.
If you work professionally within the artistic and cultural sector in Gipuzkoa, we invite you to participate.
👉 Access the questionnaire: https://form.typeform.com/to/ijbBLP7I
Estimated completion time: 15-20 minutes.
Your participation is anonymous and will contribute to generating collective knowledge about working and living conditions in the cultural sector.
