However, we are in one of the areas with the most water scarcity in Spain.This research project reveals layers of information not only about swimming pools but also about thespeculative value of the land, territorial policies, traditional orchards, displaced land, hedonistic practices,second homes, and tourism.We are in a territory that has been transformed in the last 50 years. If the water has traditionally beenused for irrigating orchards, the trend in recent decades has been to use it also for private enjoyment. Theprivate pool is a status symbol that also acquires the ability to be a marker of the lifestyle that developerspropose and sell in Vega Baja.A research and performative project by Diego Abellan and Joaquin Lucas.*THE PROJECT IS SPLIT IN TWO PARTS:PART 1 RESEARCH: A5 12P BLACK & WHITE STAPLED ZINE + 29X50CM FOLDED MAP + A4 INSERT + A2 POSTER.PART 2 PERFORMANCE: A5 INSERT + A4 12P PHOTOGRAPHY ZINE.
