| Summary: | [EN] In 2010, I documented a dérive through Cabo de Gata Natural Park in photographs and video. The aim was to record the emotions that an environment transformed by human activities could provoke in the traveler. Further development of the material collected resulted in a project entitled “(VI)VIENDO”. This practicalartistic experience lacked a written theoretical background at that time, and to overcome this, it is intended to rediscover this creative process from the Situationist dérive approach, while building on the concept of entropy coined by Robert Smithson in 1967. The purposes of the present article are to show the usefulness of the dérive as a constantly renewed territorial research methodology and defend a concept of alternative beauty which is only perceivable once the spectator is able to break with traditional aesthetics. |
