Friday 13th September will remind many people either how lucky or unlucky they were 5 years ago, when a new exhibition marking the anniversary of the devastating 2009 floods opens in Almoradí.

The mayor of Almoradí, María Gómez, accompanied by the painter Francisco Sánchez Soria and the councillor for tourism, José Antonio Latorre, presented “Tiempo sin Orillas” (Time without Shores), a new showcase in the Exhibition Hall of the Almoradí Town Hall.

A graduate of the Faculty of Fine Arts of San Fernando in Madrid, Sánchez Soria works as a professor of Drawing in Almoradí. He completed doctoral courses in Geography and History at the University of Alicante, where he obtained a PhD in Philosophy and Letters with a research paper on the relationship between architecture and aesthetics.

“Tiempos sin Orillas” was born as an artistic response to the devastation and impact that the DANA caused in the region five years ago. Through the works on display, a profound artistic reflection is offered on the effects of that event and its mark on the environment and the Vega Baja.

The Mayor of Almoradí, María Gómez García, invites all residents, visitors and art lovers to visit it, as it will be a great opportunity to see an artistic project that reflects the days when the DANA affected our beloved Vega Baja. The exhibition will remain open until November 9, from Monday to Saturday, from 10:00 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.
