He has done it again. Rosalía returns to record some of her video clips in Baix Llobregat, elevating the architectural heritage of the region where she was born, catapulting the attractions of her land to millions of people around the planet.
SiVampilos, with Rauw Alejandro, had the Espai Corberó in Esplugues de Llobregat as its location, in the Catalan’s new video, this time with Björk, it has moved just a few kilometers further. Specifically to the La Ricarda Farm in El Prat de Llobregat.
In Oral, the new song for charity, the two artists are seen in a martial arts fight in this open space, which has one-story warehouses connected by two-story towers and a metal structure designed by engineer Joan Torras i Guardiola.
The origins of the enclave date back to 1909, when Manuel Bertrand began construction, initially located on the Ricarda estate, for months now in the spotlight of political debate in Catalonia because it is the area that is affected by a hypothetical expansion of the El Prat airport.
However, the farm that was once the largest dairy farm in Catalonia is no longer there. And the previous expansion of the aerodrome, at the beginning of this century, affected it.
The airport manager, Aena, reached an agreement with the City Council to rebuild it in another place, the Cal Silet road, closer to the urban center of the town. The farm was finally transferred to the municipality.
This cultural asset of local interest now hosts citizen activities, such as the El Prat poultry fair, which will reach its 50th edition next month.
