In recent years Noris has developed his artistic practice mainly in the field of painting, directing his research into two main thematic areas: ruin and historical memory on the one hand and territory and [[../Del caminar y del territorio/Paisaje/Paisaje|landscape]] on the other. In his career he has combined studio work with more performative [[../Proyectos/Proyectos|projects]] (2015, _[[../Proyectos/Paratext/Paratext|Paratext]] #07_, Hangar) and with walking as artistic practice. Since 2013, the [[../Del caminar y del territorio/Paisaje/Paisaje|landscape]] has been a key element in his work, a place for events understood also as a stage for defeat and transit, such as border crossings and former concentration camps. His research has led him to deepen and experiment with his relationship with the [[../Del caminar y del territorio/Paisaje/Paisaje|landscape]] and territory through the aesthetic and artistic practice in the [[../Proyectos/Proyectos|projects]] _"[[../Proyectos/En frontera/En frontera#ENG - On the Border|On the Border]]"_ (2017, [[../Ecosistema/Barcelona Producció|Barcelona Producció]] / La Capella ), _"La Entrega, act I"_ (2018, La Panera de Lleida and the [[../Ecosistema/Centre d'Art i Natura|CAN de Farrera]]), "[[../Proyectos/Lloc, lluny, llar/Lloc, lluny, llar|Lloc, lluny, llar]]”* (2020/2021, Nau Côclea and OSIC) and the most recent _"[[../Sequere/Sequere|Sequere]]"_ (2022, Institut d'Estudis Ilerdencs). In Spain, Noris has exhibited in [[../Del caminar y del territorio/Territorio/Barcelona|Barcelona]] (_La Capella, Galería Trama, Cyan Gallery, Galería Esther Montoriol, Galería Contrast, Galería H2O, The Private Space, Casa Elizalde, Can Felipa, Galería Sicart, [[../Ecosistema/Piramidón|Piramidón]]_, etc.), in [[../Sequere/Hipertext/Lleida|Lleida]] (_Institut d'Estudis Ilerdencs_, _La Panera_, _Mare de Déu de la Serra, Farrera, Sant Feliu de Barruera_), in Madrid (_Matadero_), in Huesca (_CDAN_, Fundación Hospital de Bebasque_), in Castellón (_Canem Gallery_), in Vic (_Roman Temple, 5th Biennial_) and in the _MuME, Museu Memorial de l'Exili_ de La Jonquera. Abroad, he has participated in exhibitions and festivals in Uruguay ([[../Del caminar y del territorio/Territorio/Garzón|Garzón]], 2023), United States (New York, _The Active Space_, 2014), Italy (_Different Pulses_, 2013 and _ParmaPoesia_, 2002) and France (Paris, _Centre Pompidou_, 2002). In parallel to his artistic activity, in the last twenty years he has collaborated in different collective projects. Between 1998 and 2002 in Bologna -Italy-, he participated in collaborative projects in digital environments. In 2006, by now in [[../Del caminar y del territorio/Territorio/Barcelona|Barcelona]], he promoted the self-organization of the artists of the art center of _[[../Ecosistema/La Escocesa/La Escocesa|La Escocesa]]_ for the creation and management of a new creation factory. In May 2018, he co-founded _[Fase](http://fase.xyz)_, a centre for creation and thought in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat (Spain). Between 2020 and 2024, he was a member of the management board of the [[../Ecosistema/Centre d'Art i Natura|Centre d'Art i Natura]] de [[../Del caminar y del territorio/Territorio/Farrera|Farrera]] ([[../Sequere/Hipertext/Lleida|Lleida]]). Noris was artist in residence at _[La Escocesa](https://laescocesa.org)_ and _[Hangar](https://hangar.org)_ ([[../Del caminar y del territorio/Territorio/Barcelona|Barcelona]]). During 2022 he has worked at the [MNAC](http://www.museunacional.cat) for the elaboration and renovation of the contents and the narrative of the Romanesque art collection of the National Museum of Catalonia. He currently has his studio in _[[../Ecosistema/Piramidón|Piramidón]]_, a contemporary art center in [[../Del caminar y del territorio/Territorio/Barcelona|Barcelona]]. Since 2024, his work has been part of the National Collection of Contemporary Art of the Generalitat de Catalunya, on deposit at the Morera museum in Lleida. ## Trajectory ### Walking as an artistic practice 2022 — [[../Sequere/Sequere|Sequere (La Entrega, acto II)]] (Institut d'Estudis Ilerdencs, Lleida, Spain) 2020 — [[../Proyectos/Lloc, lluny, llar/Lloc, lluny, llar|Lloc, lluny, llar]] (Nau Côclea and OSIC, Generalitat de Catalunya, Spain) 2018 — [[../Proyectos/La Entrega - acto I/La Entrega - Acto I|La Entrega, acto I]] (La Panera and Farrera's CAN, Lleida, Spain) 2017 — [[../Proyectos/En frontera/En frontera|On the Border]] (La Capella /[[../Ecosistema/Barcelona Producció|Barcelona Producció]], Spain) ### Installations and solo exhibitions 2023 — [[../Proyectos/Campo 2023/Transmutaciones - Campo 2023|Transmutations]], Campo ArtFest 23, [[../Del caminar y del territorio/Territorio/Garzón|Garzón]] (Uruguay) 2023 — [[../Sequere/Sequere|Sequere]], La Gòtika, Institut d'Estudis ilerdencs, Lleida (Spain) 2021 — _[[../Proyectos/La pell de la terra/Dins la pell de la terra|Dins la pell de la terra]] (entre cims i cavallons)_ in “Un món fràgil”, Embarrat 2021, Cal Trepat, Tàrrega (Spain) 2021 — _[[../Proyectos/La pell de la terra/La pell de la terra|La pell de la terra]]_, Mare de Déu de la Serra, Farrera, Lleida (Spain) 2020 — _[[../Proyectos/Nel lieve sovrapporsi di cielo e terra/Nel lieve sovrapporsi di cielo e terra|Nel lieve sovrapporsi di cielo e terra]]_, [[../Ecosistema/Piramidón|Piramidón]], Barcelona (Spain) 2020 — _Skins_, [[../Proyectos/La pell de la terra/Errant 2020|Errant Festival]], Sant Feliu de Barruera (Lleida, Barcelona) 2019 - _[[../Proyectos/Refugium, refugia/Refugium, refugia - eng|Refugium, refugia]]_ — MUME, Exile Memorial Museum of La Jonquera (Spain) 2018 — On the Border, La Capella, Barcelona (Spain) 2017 — Art and memory — [[../Proyectos/En frontera/En frontera#ENG - On the Border|On the Border]], MUME — Exile Memorial Museum of La Jonquera (Spain) 2017 — It wasn’t the sun, Trama gallery, Barcelona (Spain) 2016 — [[../Proyectos/Refugium, refugia/2016 - (In)refugios/(Un)refuges|(In)refugis]], Roman Temple, Vic (spain) 2016 — [[../Proyectos/Refugium, refugia/2016 - (In)refugios/(Un)refuges|(In)refugis]] 1936/2016, Cànem Gallery, Castellón de la Plana (Spain) 2013 — Under Construction (two artist show), Espai M, [[../Ecosistema/La Escocesa/La Escocesa|La Escocesa]], Barcelona (Spain) 2008 — Remote locations, Contrast gallery, Barcelona (Spain) ### Selected group exhibitions 2024 — Amposta City Art Biennial (BIAM) 2024, (Tarragona, Spain) 2024 — [[../News/2024/2024_11 Postals des de Piramidón|Postcards from Piramidón]], Piramidón, Barcelona (Spain) 2024 — [[../News/2024/2024_06 Fronteres.
