Megan and Murray McMillan

This summer, we’ll be spending the entire month of June at Can Serrat, an international artist-in-residence program in El Bruc, Spain, near the Montserrat Monastery, about 45 kilometers outside Barcelona. We’ll make our next artwork, a photo and video project, partially in the studio on-site, but primarily in the surrounding region, which is rich with unusual rock formations and vast systems of caves. The work will be costume heavy, and will depend on the natural landscape and light.

We’re also planning on traveling around Spain by train, to Madrid and Bilboa, and by ferry to the island of Majorca. Of course, we’ll spend a great deal of time in Barcelona as well. Any must-dos while we’re in Iberia?
